Music has always been
an important part of congregational and worship life at Trinity.
Our program features groups for various ability levels and musical
tastes.
Adult Choir
This is the traditional Parish Choir which sings every Sunday morning
at the 9:45 service and for all other liturgical services from the
1st Sunday in September through the 2nd Sunday in June.
The choir is composed
of a dedicated core of volunteers, and is augmented by four professional
leaders who provide vocal leadership in each section.
Music the choir sings
is drawn mainly from, but not limited to the huge body of great
Christian music from the Middle Ages to the present.
Membership is open to
all, and rehearsals are Thursday evenings from 7:30 to 9:00.
Boys' and Girls' Choirs
Our choirs are members of the Royal School of Church Music in America
and participate in the training program for choristers. Training
classes are held each week for 1/2 hour before rehearsal.
In addition to singing,
the Choirs take trips and enjoy parties.
Membership is open to
all children grades 3 through high school. Girls meet Tuesday from
5 to 6pm. Boys meet Thursday from 4:30 to 5:30pm.
Primary Choir
Primary Choir is for children in grades K-2 and is held for
three 6 week sessions during the school year. The children learn
elementary musicianship and vocal production. Musical games are
used along with traditional techniques. At the end of each session
the children sing in church.
Re-Creation Choir
Re-Creation was started at Trinity over ten years ago to praise
the Lord in song with contemporary Christian music. During that
time, Re-Creation has performed regularly at Trinity, and periodically
at other churches, festivals and convalescent homes throughout the
Newtown, Danbury and New Milford areas.
Instrumental Ensemble
Instrumental Ensemble is for all players in middle and high school
who play a band or orchestral instrument and who wish to play for
festival services at Christmas, Easter, and Pentecost.
