The St. Ann Youth Choir is the pre-eminent sacred music children’s choir in the Diocese of Palm Beach. The 80-plus children range in age from 7-18 and sing under the direction of composer Christopher Hogan. SAYC provides music for masses and concerts at their home parish of St. Ann Catholic Church and throughout our Diocese and beyond.
Established in 2014, SAYC has recorded three albums – including the 2023 release of Water of the Soul, participated in three European singing tours and twice been featured on Sounds from the Spires on Sirius XM’s The Catholic Channel.
The children are excited to get back to their choir loft this Fall! We have an exciting year ahead.
This November we will celebrate the release of our long-awaited Advent and Christmas album. Our 2026 singing tour through Austria and Germany allowed us to share the joy of Mr. Hogan’s Christmas music in Europe and soon the whole world will get to hear that same music on their favorite steaming platform.
