Chancel Choir

 

Chancel Choir 

The Chancel Choir of Good Shepherd is a well-trained volunteer ensemble made up of 25 voices. As music at Good Shepherd is an important part of its makeup, the choir plays an integral role in all of our liturgies. Wednesday rehearsals (from 7:00pm-9:00pm) in the choir room are intensive, fast-paced, and exciting - this stems from the choir's dedication and commitment to a high standard of music-making in their weekly offerings. Aside from its weekly Sunday morning offerings, the choir sings at both Christmas Eve services, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Vigil, and is a major component of the Mayse-Turner Festival for Anglican Hymnody. The choir also offers Evensongs twice a year - All Saints' Sunday and Good Shepherd Sunday. The choir is open to anyone with singing experience, can read music, and can offer a high level of commitment. Contact the organist/choirmaster at sgallier@goodshepherd23.org  for more information on joining our excellent choir.
