Women’s Chant Ensemble
      Colleen Liggett, Director

Founded in 1999, Schola Feminarum is a group of women from many backgrounds and faith traditions, who come together under the leadership of Colleen Liggett to sing Gregorian Chant, a form of music used in the church for over 1000 years.        We include experienced singers as well as women who have never before sung in a group. Some of us can read the chant notation; others learn by listening. All of us learn about the music from Colleen, who has studied chant on her own and with Father Gerard Farrell at Westminster Choir College. Although we don't emphasize performance, we sing for some holy day Masses at Saint Anne Church and occasionally take part in concerts.        All women are invited to come sing with us in rehearsal with no obligation. We meet at St. Anne Church. The ensemble is open to women of all ages and experience. There are no auditions.        For information about singing with Schola Feminarum contact the Director at: Saint Anne Church, 585-271-3260.       Collen Liggett (right), directs Schola Feminarum in Concert at St.Anne Church, May19, 2006.        Schola Feminarum singer and parishioner, Anne Marie Woloszyn, is also shown.
