St. Gregory Institute

Founded in 2006, the St. Gregory Institute for Music and Liturgy encourages and facilitates collaborative and interdisciplinary studies from church musicians and liturgiologists on a variety of topics relating to the Mass of the Latin Rite. Its mission is to help local Catholics rediscover a sense of the sacred through liturgies, devotions, sacred music, as well as instruction in the great cultural heritage of the Church. Based at St. John’s Church in Stamford, Connecticut, the institute will also disseminate the results of its work and will host forums on special topics that might include experts from areas outside of Connecticut. In the spirit of inquiry and discovery in service to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the institute hopes to inspire an understanding of and passion for the highest artistic achievements inspired by the Roman Rite, especially sacred music.
