Parish Choir & Musical Groups

St. Victor's Parish Choir was founded in 1961.

The Choir enhances the liturgy each Sunday (10:45 Mass) and on major feast days, providing an atmosphere conducive to prayer and worship. Also, the Choir has been honored to with guest appearances in more than a dozen Bay Area churches, including St. Mary's Cathedral in San Francisco, St. Patrick's and St. Joseph's Cathedrals in San Jose, the Santa Clara Mission, the Carmelite Monastery and the Carmel Mission Church.

Over the years the Choir has led and participated in many fund raising activities which enabled the purchase of the church organ, two pianos, the choirs' robes and music materials.

The Choir's repertoire is large in scope, ranging from Gregorian Chant to the very modern. It includes music from various cultures as well as contemporary music written especially for the group.

Rehearsals are held every Monday evening in the church. Adults with some choral singing experience are welcome to join, and should contact the Parish Office for more information: (408) 251-7055  (Email: Click Here).

OTHER MUSIC GROUPS

St. Victor's is also fortunate to have volunteer musicians available for most week-end Masses. Currently, the 5:00 PM Mass on Saturdays and the 8 AM Mass on Sundays are led by a Cantor with keyboard accompanist. The 9:15 AM and 12:15 PM Masses on Sundays are blessed with larger music groups to lead congregational singing. The Couples for Christ take care of singing on Saturday evenings. The Youth and Young Adult Choir sing at the Sunday evening Masses from the second Sunday of September to the second Sunday of June.

Anyone interested in joining any of these groups should make themselves known after Mass, or leave your name and phone number with the Parish office, specifying which Mass group you are interested in.
