Singing God’s praises is an expression of our faith and an avenue to offer up prayers, praise and thanksgiving to our Creator and Sustainer.

An Invitation

If you are interested in becoming a part of the music ministry at Holy Trinity Parish, please contact the people listed below. We look forward each year to welcoming new musicians, and we look forward to hearing from you!

Adult Choir

The Adult Choir leads congregational singing and offers anthems on Sundays and major feast days of the year. Anthems are drawn from all musical periods, from the Renaissance to our own times. Emphasis is placed on music which is appropriate to the traditions of the Episcopal Church. The choir sings several Evensong services throughout the year. Previous choir experience and the ability to read music are important, and choir members must be willing to make the commitment to attend rehearsals and services on a consistent basis. Weekly rehearsals are held on Wednesday evenings from 7:30 until 9:30 pm, and on Sunday mornings at 9:45 am prior to the 10:30 am service. Contact Keith Nash (nash@htparish.com).

Handbell Choir

Bells have a long tradition in the rites of Christian worship. Small bells were often carried in processions in order to maintain pitch during the singing of psalms. The bell choir at Holy Trinity participates in the liturgy on festive occasions throughout the year, including Lessons and Carols, Christmas Eve, Palm Sunday, Easter, and Pentecost. During the year, a few ringers are scheduled each week to accompany the psalm during the 10:30 am worship service. The Handbell Choir has also performed at other venues during the Christmas season. Parish teens and adults are encouraged to join, especially those who have played an instrument. These skills can be readily transferred to handbell ringing. Rehearsals are held on Wednesdays from 5:00 – 6:00 pm under the direction of Keith Nash. Contact Keith Nash (nash@htparish.com).

Taizé Worship

Our regularly scheduled Taizé (http://www NULL.taize NULL.fr/en) worship services, held in conjunction with the labyrinth ministry, offer a unique venue for those parishioners who play instruments. Simple chants, sung to the accompaniment of instruments, enable participants to pray in an uncomplicated and meditative way. Rehearsals are held prior to each worship service. (maxwell@htparish.com)
