Music At St. Jude's


"Oh Lord, open our lips, and our mouths shall proclaim your praise."

 

Contents

Choir Association - Madeleine Ironside President

Our choir leads the singing in our worship of God.  The choir always welcomes people who like to sing.  

We are in particular need of more men for our tenor and bass sections.

They rehearse on Wednesday evenings from 7:30pm to about 8:30pm

No experience necessary, just a desire to make the finest music possible.

Music Director & Organist - Senan Whelan

St. Jude's is blessed with a congregation of good singers.  Please consider using the gift of your voice to praise God by singing in the choir.  They rehearse on Thursday evenings from 7:30pm to about 8:30pm

Senan began his career as an Organist in 1969 in Dublin, Ireland and has been a church Organist since his teenage years.

Before his move to Canada in 1998, he was Director of Music at St. Michael’s, Vaucluse, NSW, Australia where, from 1992, he worked in conjunction with the then incumbent and noted Australian composer and liturgist, Lawrence F. Bartlett.

He was Organist and Choirmaster at the church of the Epiphany and St. Mark, Parkdale, Toronto from 1998 to 2004.

In addition to giving Organ recitals in Ireland and Australia, Senan is also an accomplished Viola player winning awards in Ireland and playing in Symphony Orchestras in Ireland and Australia.
