The Chorale and the Music Ministry of Holy Family:  Background and Support

The St. Cecilia Chorale (SCC) is comprised of choral artists (professional and volunteer) associated with parishes in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles.  It was founded in 1996, by Christian Marcoe, to perform the music for the liturgy on the Feast of the Presentation of Christ in the Temple.

Since its founding, the SCC has appeared in numerous sacred concerts and liturgies, performing at various venues around the Archdiocese of Los Angeles and extensively throughout Europe.  The SCC went on a millennial tour of Great Britain in 2000, appearing at the St. Giles, the Scottish National Cathedral, and at the Warwick-Leamington Music Festival.  In 2005, the SCC undertook a triumphant concert tour of Italy, being one of the first contingents from the Archdiocese to be presented to His Holiness Benedict XVI, singing in the papal audience.  The SCC also presented concerts to the cities of Rome, Florence, and Trevi, and sang liturgies in St. Peter’s Basilica, Rome and St. Mark’s Basilica, Venice.

This site is also home for the Music Ministry and Choirs (Santa Margarita, St. Cecilia, Simbayanan, Children's Concert Chorus, and Schola Cantorum) of Holy Family Catholic Church (HFCC), Glendale, California.
