When man comes into contact with God, mere speech is not enough. Areas of his existence are awakened that spontaneously turn into song. Indeed, man's own being is insufficient for what he has to express, and so he invites the whole of creation to become a song with him.”Pope Benedict XVI, The Spirit of the Liturgy, (SF, CA: Ignatius, 2000), p. 136

The St. John Eudes Children′s and Adult Choirs perform in the L.A. Opera Company production of “Noye′s Fludde” at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels under the direction of James Conlon, L.A. Opera Music Director.
The St. John Eudes Music Ministry helps us to share our faith through music and song, lifting our hearts to God. The Music Ministry takes many forms including children, adult, chamber, contemporary, and Spanish music groups. Select voices give a special quality to our musical events and serve as cantors at our liturgies. Our adult choir brings music to our 11:00 am weekly Sunday mass, with special musical liturgies for Christmas, Easter, and other special holy days and services. Our contemporary and Spanish music groups serve the varied needs that we have in our parish. The choir also presents concerts throughout the year, on festive and on more light-hearted occasions.
In addition to performing for parish functions, our Music Ministry groups have performed with the L.A. Opera on several occasions, as well as at Disneyland, at Carnegie Hall, have appeared in a Hallmark TV Christmas special, and performed a concert tour in Germany. They have been wonderful representatives of our parish spirit to the world!
