The Schola Cantorum of Florida Pro Musica

The FPM Schola Cantorum has performed a concert of Gregorian Chant during the season of Advent for the last eight years. Presented in concert form, rather than a liturgy, listeners can sit and absorb the meditative sounds of Gregorian Chant in the visually and aurally magnificent setting of Sacred Heart, leaving behind the noise and hectic pace of December at the shopping malls. These concerts have become a tradition at Sacred Heart, and typically draw a capacity audience. The Schola also presents these concerts in other venues in Florida. Tampa Tribune Photo.

Our 9th annual concert of Gregorian Chant is on Sunday, December 11, 2011 at 4:00 p.m. at Sacred Heart. The FPM Schola, a small, all-male ensemble, will perform Mass for the 3rd Sunday of Advent. Hear Latin sacred music as it may have sounded 1,000 years ago.

This year's Schola: Peter Baker, Tim LaDue, Mark Payne, Stephen Rosser, Jim Shuler, George Western, Larry Kent (director)
