Workshop Description
Putting together a repertoire of hymns and pieces for liturgy requires taking into consideration many important factors. As liturgists and pastoral musicians, we must ensure that our selections are both appropriate for the liturgy and within our musical capabilities – whilst enticing for participation from the congregation. This workshop will highlight practical steps on how to collate a set list of songs for liturgy by exploring the sung parts of the mass, liturgical seasons and musical arrangements.
