St. Elijah Choir
Levavi oculos meos in montes, unde veniet auxilium mihi.
Psalm 120:1
The St. Elijah Choir is comprised of dedicated Catholic students, both undergraduate and graduate, at the University of Connecticut, Storrs. They meet every Tuesday to rehearse Renaissance and medieval polyphony, which they sing for Sunday and feast day Masses at Saint Patrick Oratory. They augment the work of the St. Patrick Choir, while also preparing repertoire in a smaller chamber setting. Their repertoire for the 2022-2023 season included:
- Byrd: Oculi omnium
- Ceballos: Regina cœli
- Gabrieli: O sacrum convivium
- Gesualdo: In te Domine speravi
- Guerrero: Cum audisset Joannes
- M. Haydn: Cognoverunt discipuli
- Josquin: Ave Maria.... Virgo serena
- Lassus: Ave Maria à 5
- Sheppard: Æterne Rex altissime
