Do you enjoy singing? Volunteer singers are welcome in the Epiphany Choir. This adult choir is a very dedicated and loyal group, in part because rehearsal is grounded not only in solid musical practice, but also in historical, spiritual and liturgical awareness. The Epiphany Choir is a great place for you to expand your music skills and increase your understanding of the role of music in the liturgy.

Before the Covid-19 Pandemic:

Weekly rehearsals are held Thursdays at 6:45-8:15pm from early September into June. Sunday warm-up rehearsal is at 9:30am before the 10:30am service.

The repertoire is diverse in style and level of difficulty, including Gregorian chant, Renaissance polyphony, J. S. Bach, Gospel music and spirituals, and music by living composers, with a particular emphasis on music in the Episcopal (Anglican) tradition.
