The
Sanctuary Choir
The Sanctuary Choir serves as the primary choir for Sunday morning
worship. Rehearsing on Wednesday nights from 7:30-9:00 p.m., the
choir prepares anthems to offer in worship on a weekly basis. We
also present two major works with orchestra each year (during Advent
and Lent/Eastertide) and welcome those who can only commit to occasional
periods of participation to join us when preparing these marvelous
works. The Sanctuary Choir is led by Anne Hunter Eidson. All are
welcome.
The
Youth Choirs
The Middle School Choir rehearses each Sunday from 6:30-7:30
p.m. The primary focus will be a handbell choir to perform in worship
and other venues. However, we will also include singing and other
musical interests (instrumental, drama, etc.). No experience is
necessary. Come join us!
The Senior
High Choir meets on Sunday from 5:00–6:00 p.m. and have
the opportunity to rehearse and present a musical drama, play handbells,
sing, and play instruments. No experience is necessary. Join us
and we’ll plan according to your interests!
The
Children’s Choirs
Music Makers (1st and 2nd graders) and Young Musicians
( 3rd thru 5th graders) practice from 6:45-7:30 p.m. on Wednesday.
The choirs begin and end rehearsal together, but divide for the
bulk of the rehearsal for age-appropriate learning. Children sing
in worship regularly and perform various musical mission projects
throughout the year.
The Cherub
Choir (ages 4 to K) also rehearses on Wednesday nights, from
6:00 to 6:40 p.m. This choir allows our youngest children to begin
sharing their musical gifts, and to learn some of the basics.
Special Musical Events
The Sanctuary Choir provides
the focus in worship for one Sunday of the Christmas season, usually
performing an extensive work in combination with members of the
local symphony. Easter provides the same opportunity, either on
a Sunday morning, or for a special musical presentation during Holy
Week.
Concerts on
the Lawn — Over the summer, our Music and Worship Support
Committee sponsors a series of musical events in the courtyard.
Members of the church and community are invited to bring a picnic
and enjoy these fun, family events. Please check the Monthly
Calendar for upcoming events.
