Preferred candidate will have a degree (Master’s level preferred) in Organ/Keyboard, Sacred Music, or equivalent experience. The candidate will accompany, lead, and prepare appropriate music for both diocesan and parish liturgies and involve multiple choirs, ensembles, and instrumentalists.

The candidate needs to be able to embrace the full breath of the Church’s sacred music from the most traditional hymns to contemporary Catholic music. The parish responsibilities include weddings, funerals, sacramental liturgies, weekly grade school liturgies, and holy days.
