The Cathedral Choir
The Choir of the Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist is an ensemble of about 40 professional and volunteer singers from throughout the Savannah area. The choir rehearses on Wednesdays from 6:00 – 8:15 p.m. and provides music for the 10:00a.m. Solemn Mass each Sunday from September through June. The Choir also maintains a rigorous schedule of episcopal celebrations, diocesan liturgies, and concerts.
The Cathedral Choir’s repertoire is drawn from the great tradition of Catholic music. The choir sings Gregorian chant, Renaissance polyphony, plus the great works of 19th, 20th, and 21st-century composers.
Auditions are held by appointment, usually in the late summer. Please contact music@savannahcathedral.org.

Choral Scholars
The Choral Scholars is an ensemble of eight carefully selected professional singers. Their versatility and skill allow them to cover a wide range of musical genres, bringing depth and diversity to the cathedral’s musical offerings.
Members of The Choral Scholars serve as cantors, leading the congregation in prayer and as soloists for the Friends of Cathedral Music concert series.
The Choral Scholars often sing as a stand-alone ensemble, but their primary responsibility is to serve as section leaders for the larger Cathedral Choir. This collaboration between the Choral Scholars and the volunteer choir members enhances the overall quality of the cathedral’s musical program.
The Cathedral Boys Choir & The Cathedral Girls Choir
The Cathedral Chorister Program offers children in Savannah the rare opportunity to sing some of the finest classical sacred music ever composed in one of the most beautiful churches in the South.
The program is completely free and welcomes singers, 2nd grade and up, from all backgrounds across the city. No previous music experience is required.
Under the direction of distinguished musicians Kristi Bryson and Tina Zenker Williams, our choristers receive exceptional vocal training, the unique experience of performing regularly in masses and concerts, and a rich musical education built on discipline, joy, and community.
