Music at St. Luke's

St. Luke's choir rehearses every Sunday morning at 9:15.  In addition there will be Saturday rehearsals on November 19 (in sanctuary), December 10 (Willard Hall), and December 17 (Willard Hall), all 9:30 to 11:30.  These replace our usual Thursday evening rehearsals, which are suspended until after Christmas.

Under the direction of Martha Stretton, the choir sings repertoire chosen for its fit with their voices and for its potential to enhance worship and bring the congregation into closer communion with the Trinity. The choir is a warm community of prayerful, dedicated singers who enjoy working and worshipping together. New singers are always welcome. 

In addition to Thursday evening rehearsals, the choir holds occasional workshops and retreats.  These are publicized on this web page and in the church newsletter Light in the Shadows. 

The choir offers anthems on most Sundays, and supports the congregation in singing service music. In addition to providing music each Sunday morning at Holy Eucharist, the choir also offers a Service of Choral Evensong on occasion. Our next Evensong will be June 3, 2012 (Trinity Sunday).  

St. Luke's enjoys visits from guest musicians from time to time, such as soprano soloist Julane Deener, clarinet soloist Karen Knisely, flute soloist Jyoti Knisely, and the Canterbury Singers from New York, NY. 
 

St. Luke’s has a set of MELODYCHIMES and these are used to enhance worship service on an occasional basis.  New ringers are always welcome.
