Special Programs for Enrolled Students

Our students receive exclusive access to a range of special opportunities:

• Monthly Liturgy Participation: You are invited to participate in the Latin Mass and Evening Prayer with Gregorian Chant, held at the Korean Association of Liturgical Arts, on the second Monday of every month (tentative). This is a unique chance to experience the practical role and flow of chant within the liturgy itself.

• Psalmody Recording Project: You can join the recording project for Father Park Won-ju’s responsorial psalms. Selected recordings will be used for official audio releases.

• Individualized Lessons: We offer separate, one-on-one lessons for conducting, solo performance, and chant interpretation.

• 2026 Summer Masterclass and Tour: A special masterclass and tour program is planned for the summer of 2026 in France, in collaboration with the Schola Saint-Grégoire in Le Mans and Benedictine monasteries (Solesmes, Fongombault, and Argentan). Students enrolled in this course will receive priority registration for this program.

• International Seminars: You will also get priority access to future seminars and masterclasses featuring visiting international instructors, which are scheduled to take place next year.
