Spring Concert 2011
Throughout
its history, St. John Vianney College Seminary has had a rich and vibrant
musical tradition. Archbishop Coleman Carroll established the seminary
in 1959 and brought the Vincentian Fathers to Miami in order to staff it.
Among
those founding fathers was the Rev. John Buckley, C.M., a man of extraordinary
compositional genius and musical talent. His works are performed at the
seminary even to this day. Building on the foundation established by Fr.
Buckley, the seminary has continued to produce talented and musically adept
priests and lay musicians.
Among
his students, there were many gifted musicians and musically inclined priests,
two of which will contribute compositions and perform at the Spring Concert,
namely, Msgr. Hogan and Fr. Sosa. Please join us for an evening of
fellowship and wonderful music composed and performed by our very own.
