Music Ministry at St. Paul’s
Music in the summer is a wonderful thing. We relax more, we try new things. The musical tapestry that helps us knit together the words and themes of the Sunday service looks a little different in the summer. We rely on each other to sing, to listen, to learn. In the summer the congregation is the choir and that is a wonderful thing.
Over the past two weeks I have begun teaching some of the service music and hymns before the service. We will continue with that practice into the fall. The congregational singing will begin at around 9:35 and continue until 9:45. Then there will be quiet just before the prelude.
The Music Library is coming together thanks to the wonderful efforts of Anne Moore over the past few weeks. Anne has been finding the music she used while in the choir at St. John’s so opening the boxes has unleashed many, many memories. She is in the process of entering the titles into a spreadsheet. This music director is happy about all of that.
Did you hear young voices singing on July 21st? Hopefully more young voices will join the Eche family to sing for a few occasions in the fall and winter. Would you like to sing in a youth choir at St. Paul’s? Do you know someone to suggest? Please contact
Louise Mundinger.
Our choir is getting ready to start up again. If you would like to sing in the choir and already read music, please contact me. If you would like to sing and feel a little rusty reading music, I can help you to become a cantor for the service music.
Blessings to you.
Louise
