Christmas in Ballarat 2025 – Cantate Domino

Cantate Domino sings regularly at St Patrick’s Cathedral, Ballarat. We are a ‘Pheonix’ that arose from the ashes of COVID in 2022, beginning with the Choir director and his wife and daughter.

Today, our choir is a combination of musically qaulified singers and singing teachers, experienced cantors in other Catherdrals or Christian Churches,and singers with extensive experience in community music events. We are accompanied by a funded Organ Scholar. We have recruited 15 Choral Scholars from local schools and wealso have 14 adults.

We have a strong focus on traditional styles of music such as Gregorian chant and sacred polyphony. We train our Choral Scholars in Gregorian Chant and sacred polyphony. They currently sing treble (Soprano) line and, as they get older may join the alto, tenor and bass lines. We sing a Christmas Carols service and Mass Christmas Eve @ St Patrick’s Cathedral.
