ASSUMPTION COLLEGE CHAPEL CHOIRS

The Chapel Music Program provides students, faculty, staff, alumni, and friends of the Assumption College community opportunities, to participate musically in liturgies at Assumption College through four distinct choral groups: The Chapel Choir, The '10AM' Choir, The Festival Choir, and The Alumni Choir. The student Chapel Choir is one of the most active and popular groups on campus and most students who are involved say that it is one of the most important parts of their time at Assumption College. The '10AM' and Festival Choirs join adults, alumni, and friends of the college community together to provide music for special liturgical celebrations throughout the academic year.

All Choirs are directed by Ms. Jane Shivick and accompanied by Dr. Frank Corbin

THE CHAPEL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND THE CHABOT MEMORIAL ORGAN

Assumption College’s Chapel of the Holy Spirit was completed in 1968. The architect of this contemporary structure was college alumnus Norman Nault. He was aided by his wife Julie Nault, as interior design consultant. The Chapel can accommodate 400 to 450 people.

The Chapel’s stained glass was designed by Father Donat LaMothe, a.a. in the late 1960’s and realized by Carl Paulson of Upton, MA. Read more about the Chapel of the Holy Spirit and the Chabot Memorial Organ >

I would simply say that even my limited involvement permits me to be part of a cross section of our Assumption community which considers it important to join in acts of worship and celebration at key times of the year. In addition to all that we do together at the college, it is fitting that as a Christian institution that we join in celebrating who we are spiritually and liturgically.

Deciding to join the AC Chapel Choir has immensely impacted my life at school. Prior to entering Assumption my freshman year, I visited the school several times and once I heard the choir sing at mass, I knew that I had to be a part of it. I joined the chapel choir during my freshman year, and haven't looked back since. Participating in the choir means much more than singing at weekly masses to me, it has meant meeting lifelong friends, furthering my spirituality, and partaking in once in a lifetime activities such as singing backup for Kenny Rogers. I have found that joining the chapel choir has been one of the most rewarding experiences that I have ever encountered. Learning to grow individually and as a group has taught me the values of teamwork and perserverence. Without this amazing experience, I would have surely missed out on so many incredible memories that I know will last a lifetime.
