Litany of the Saints music by Andrew Chinn

Written in 2024 as part of the release of my Mass setting, Mass of Echoing Praise. The Litany of the Saints is used on two important occasions in the Catholic Church: At the Vigil Mass at Easter and on All Saints Day (as well as on other occasions).

We invited schools from across Australia and New Zealand to submit pictures of their Saints as well as some writing about the life of their saint. These pieces of art appear throughout the Litany, as well as in the accompanying book, "A Book of Saints". We think it makes for a singable and engaging format of the Litany of the Saints.

We've gathered all of these pictures and Saint stories into a new, free, downloadable book:

A Book of Saints, featuring original artwork and words from students from Catholic schools around Australia and New Zealand.
