We are fortunate to have five vocal choirs at Trinity Church. The choirs enhance our worship and provide opportunities for parishioners to make music and experience fellowship as part of a warm and inviting group of people.
Trinity’s youth choirs use a modified RSCM (Royal School of Church Music) approach in which learning anthems is integrated with musical and spiritual growth. Choristers earn ribbons which signify their level of attainment in the program. Our goal is for choristers to sing with confidence the highest quality of music they are capable of and to enjoy the experience of learning and working together.

The Carol Choir is for children in 3rd – 6th grade. Our goal is to provide beautiful music for liturgies while instilling a love of singing and good choir habits at an early age. The RSCM approach is used in this choir. Choristers usually earn their yellow ribbon the first year and begin work on the light blue ribbon in their second year. As choristers prepare their music they learn the basics of music theory and the fundamentals of singing. This choir leads our best-attended Christmas Eve service, along with our St. Cecilia Choir. In 2023 the Carol Choir was honored to be the core group in the Diocesan Choir that sang for the consecration of our new Bishop, The Right Reverend Dr. Sally French.

Rehearsal: Tuesdays 6:00-6:30pm
Sunday mornings: Sing once a month, warmup at 9:30 a.m., sing at the 10:00 a.m. service

For choristers in grades K-2, the Cherub Choir rehearses on Tuesday evenings, and is a great way to introduce your child to the joy of singing in choir. Children will learn basic musical skills through games and activities and, of course, singing their songs.
