Cantantes In Cordibus (CIC) Now in its 16th year, CIC remains the most ambitious liturgical choir in Hudson County. We sing for the 9: 00 am Latin Mass at the historic St. Anthony of Padua Church on Monmouth and 6th in the now fashionable downtown Jersey City. http://blogs.shu.edu/newarkchurches/archives/886 Simone Ferraresi directs the mixed choir and accompanies on organ. http://home.simoneferraresi.com/ The choir?s repertoire ranges from simple Gregorian Masses, through the glories of the Renaissance to contemporary settings. The choir generally does several orchestral Masses a year. Motets and hymns are also sung. There is a warm up at 8:30 am before Mass and rehearsal after Mass from 10:30 am to 11:30 am. Additional rehearsals are held on Wednesday evening for those who do not sight read or if, on occasion, necessary. Art Manabat, well known in the NY early music scene, acts as the choir manager and assists Simone with artistic direction. We enjoy regular assistance from veterans of the Renaissance Street Singers and have become known for the collaborative production of Tenebrae in Holy Week featuring Allegri?s Miserere. Joseph Orchard, PhD, directs the Men?s Schola which sings the Propers for each Mass from the Liber Usualis. The Men?s Schola meets at 8:00 am before each Mass. This is a friendly group of singers, believers and non believers, who work together with a range of talents to produce a reliably impressive sound. This is also the rare opportunity to experience this music in the context for which it was composed. Call Dan at 201 406 9960 to arrange an audition. Singers are welcome too to drop in for a special feast, e.g. Christmas. Christmas Eve 2016 will feature Monteverdi?s Monteverdi's Messa da Cappella (1641) following the composer?s directions in the original Venetian score.
