The adult and children’s choirs of St. Paul’s Memorial and Trinity Church, Staunton join forces at St. Paul’s for an Ascension Day Choral Mass. The combined choir will present John Rutter’s beautiful and uplifting Mass of the Children. The Mass of the Children was conceived with an integral role for a children’s choir alongside an adult mixed choir, two soloists, and orchestra. The role of the children’s choir is to add a further dimension to the traditional Latin Mass sung by the adult choir, sometimes commenting, sometimes amplifying the meaning and mood.
