Our Ensembles
Whether you are a seasoned musician, or just wanting to get your foot wet in the waters of music, you will find a group for you here at First Presbyterian!
The Chancel Choir
Chancel Choir membership is open to all - those interested in joining. If you are unsure of your vocal part, the music staff will work with you to determine the best vocal part fit for you in the choir. The Chancel Choir rehearses weekly on Wednesday in the Music Suite on the 3rd floor of the education building at 6:30 - rehearsals are open to the public . The choir is off during the summer months from mid-May until Labor Day.
The Bell Choir
Restarted in spring 2025 - the Handbell choir is a great way to dip your foot into music, even with no experience! This group welcomes all with a passion to learn and have fun making music. This group of self professed ding-a-lings meet on Tuesday at 5:30 in room 219 during the academic year. WE do not meet in the summer.
The Chancel Ensemble
Our instrumental ensemble - this group is for those who like a more modern approach to music in worship! If you play an instrument and are looking for a way to participate in worship more regularly, reach out to the music office to schedule your audition with the Ensemble!
