The 12pm choir was established over sixty years ago and preserves a long tradition of choral singing in the Church of the Most Holy Redeemer, Bray. A number of choir directors and organists have been associated with this enthusiastic group of singers, including Leo O’Toole, Fr. Des Forrestal, the Murray family (including Seán P. Murray (Jack), Ciarán Murray and Rónán Murray, together with soprano Niamh Murray who joins the choir for Christmas), John Ivory, and Margaret Bridge. Our current choral director is Philippa Bridge and the organist is Deirdre Powell. We sing from a wide-ranging repertoire dating from the 16th century to the present day. It also draws on well-known church hymns and choral works, such as Panis Angelicus and Ave Verum. We have performed on both radio and television, most recently as part of the combined choirs for the Christmas Eve Mass of 2008 on RTE One Television. The programme was a live broadcast from the Church of the Most Holy Redeemer. We are a congenial group and welcome all adult age groups to the choir. An ability to read music is not necessary. We rehearse every Monday night from 8-9pm, sing at the 12pm Mass on Sundays (with the exception of the First Sunday of the month) and take a well-deserved break from singing during the months of July and August.
