The school has a tradition of fine singing groups, but it has recently seen a surge in its choral program with music teacher, Peter Stewart. Mr. Stewart comes with experience, as he has led people in song all across the country for over 45 years, and is delighted to be working at SMA.
“I originally came to the school to play Santa in it’s production of ‘Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer,’ says Stewart. Under his leadership, the choirs have also sung at The Old North Church, St. Anthony’s Shrine in Boston, the National Shrine of our Lady of LaSalette in Attleboro, Massachusetts and the Sisters of Notre Dame in Ipswich.
There are three choirs offered by SMA: The St. Cecelia Senior Choir ( grades 6,7,8) the St. Cecelia Junior choir (grades 3,4,5), and the Little Singers ( grades 1+2 )
Stewart is far from through with his plans for the choir; he says, " Next year it is Washington, D.C. or Disney!"
