Music
Music is integral to our worship and a meaningful part of our Sunday morning service. Enthusiastic congregational singing is encouraged and supported by a fine Austin pipe organ. Our Choir of Men and Women is a talented group of adults who sing on Sundays plus other special services from September to June. With rehearsals on Thursday evenings, membership is open to all adults who love to sing and are committed to the music of the church.
Re-Creation, a group of singers accompanied by guitar and piano, supplement the more formal choir with songs of contemporary Christian music during some of our Sunday services and our periodic outdoor services in the Summer.
The Taize Choir is a group of men and women leading worship in the style of Taizé. We gather prior to each of these prayerful (and musical) services to rehearse, then lead the congregation through the songs.
We’re very proud of our organ with its 2,369 pipes arranged in 43 ranks and made of tin-lead alloy, zinc, brass, poplar and mahogany. Our Austin Organ, Opus 2652, is the fourth instrument in the present Trinity Church building, but only the second pipe organ. The Austin organ was chosen from among the several possible builders because of a history of reliability, and because of the tonal beauty and versatility.
