Dear Friends,

David Anderson and Michael Silhavy, Pilgrimage to SpainWe invite you to join us and The Chicago Pilgrimage Choir on an exciting choir tour to Spain! We will visit many churches and monasteries where our music will reverberate in sacred spaces. Our musical tour begins in Madrid. Then, at El Escorial Monastery we will join our voices with the famous boys choir. In Avila and Toledo we will sing informally. At the Marian shrines of Zaragoza and Montserrat we will offer a prayer in song to Our Lady. We will also sing at the famed Sagrada Familia in Barcelona.

David Anderson, Director of Pastoral Music and Liturgy at Ascension and St. Edmund Parish, and Michael Silhavy, Senior Project Editor for GIA Publications, Inc. and Director of the St. Edmund Choir, will be the principal directors on this special choir trip. David and Michael have invited colleagues in the Chicago metro area and their choirs to join The Chicago Pilgrimage Choir’s inaugural journey. We all look forward to the opportunity to sing and pray in holy places providing graces to return home transformed. We look forward to welcoming you to this great adventure!
