Music at All Saints’

The word to describe music at All Saints is eclectic.

We are a Singing Congregation

Music at All Saints is firmly grounded in our shared song – the song of all of God’s people gathered. Our choirs and musicians enrich our worship by offering music that makes our common prayer an engaging and uplifting experience. We explore songs from different cultures while paying attention to the rich musical heritage of the Anglican tradition.

A typical Sunday service can include a hymn from the 16th century, a contemporary Spanish Alleluia, popular songs that inspire us to consider how God is working in our lives, rocking out to Black Gospel music, and listening to meditative piano music or a Bach fugue played on the organ.

Singers & Choirs

Singers of all sorts from professional musicians to those whose singing is confined to the shower are welcome to participate in our choirs. 

Adult Choirs

There are opportunities for singers to participate in small ensembles, sing solos, and serve as Cantors (singing the verses of Psalms and leading other music during the service).

Rehearsal and Service Schedules

The choir for the 9:00 am service rehearses at 8:00 am on Sundays and during a midweek rehearsal (open for all singers) on the first and third Thursdays at 7:00 pm.

The choir for the 11:00 am service meet during the midweek rehearsal (mentioned above) and on Sunday mornings at 10:15 am just prior to the 11:00 am service.

Summer rehearsal schedule may change. See Calendar

We invite you to share your singing voice.

If you want to sing with us and none of these rehearsal times work for you contact us. Let’s be in touch to talk about other options. There are plenty of additional opportunities and we’re open to creative scheduling to allow as many people as possible to participate. 

Musicians

We regularly make use of instruments of all kinds in our worship services including drums, flute, guitar, piano, organ, shruti box, didgeridoo, and you name it. If you play an instrument and you’d like to make music in church, there’s an opportunity for you here at All Saints. In fact, we’d love to have a whole band that could play on a regular basis.

Now is the time to make music!

There’s plenty of room for everyone to make music at All Saints’, so now is the time to add your musical talent to the rich and diverse tapestry of music we hope to weave as part of our worship.
