“Make a joyful noise unto the Lord!” – Psalm 100
Adult Choir
Rehearsals on Thursday evenings from 7:15–9:00 P.M.
The Adult Choir is always delighted to welcome new members in all sections! This is a friendly group of musicmakers who enjoy being together and singing at a high level. We rehearse a wide variety of music and include major choral works in our repertoire.
In 2004 we performed the Colorado premier of Andrew Carter’s Magnificat for adult choir, children’s voices, handbells, organ, and chamber orchestra. Other major works performed in recent years include the Vivaldi Gloria, the Bach Magnificat, the Rutter Gloria and Requiem, the Pinkham Christmas Cantata, the Fauré Requiem, and the Vaughan Williams Five Mystical Songs.
Faith Singers
Rehearsals on Sundays after church at 11:45am.
This choir, for grades 2–5, includes fun opportunities for singing and for playing Orff instruments, handchimes, boomwhackers, and handbells!
We'll be learning an exciting new musical this year! In 2008 we presented David and the Giants, the story of David and Goliath and how we can slay our modern-day giants; in 2006 it was Rescue in the Night, the story of Daniel in the lions’ den. In prior years we've performed Celebrate Life!, O, Jonah!, A Technicolor Promise, and Moses and the Freedom Fanatics.
