Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous;
it is good for the just to sing praises.
Sing to him a new song. Psalm 33
The musical world has been greatly affected by COVID-19, especially the act of singing. Recent guidelines have recommended singers be distanced by at least 27 feet. Therefore this makes congregational singing and choirs virtually impossible. Singing has been such a vital part of our worship lives as we lift our voices singing praises. For the time being, we have assembled small groups in the church to record anthems and hymns for use in our services. With new technology, we produced our first Virtual Choir recording for the 20th anniversary celebration of the re-dedication of Trinity Church in October. We will continue to use music in our worship in a safe and responsible way. The day will come when all can lift their voices in song to worship the Almighty and it will be a glorious day.

Adult Choirs
Senior Choir is open to all parish members and interested community singers without audition. The choir of 30 singers is made up totally of volunteers, though quite a number of its members have had extensive training as choral singers and participate in multiple choral groups in the area. The choir sings a variety of musical styles ranging from medieval chant to 21st century anthems and spirituals. They also perform portions of G. F. Handel’s Messiah yearly with professional soloists and orchestra.
Chamber Choir is an auditioned group that specializes in a cappella anthems and motets.
Youth Choir
Saint Cecilia Choir is for children in grades K-8. This choir is an excellent way for children to learn the fundamentals of reading music and to develop their singing voices. In addition to learning anthems especially suited for younger voices, considerable time is spent learning how to navigate our way through the rich treasure that is our hymnal.
Trinity Pipe Organ
The pipe organ is one of the foundations of our Episcopal services. From prelude to postlude, the pipe organ leads the liturgy. Martin Pasi of Pasi Organ Builders designed and built the Opus 17 especially for the Trinity space. Everything from casting the pipes to building the casework to carving the bone for the keys, was custom manufactured in Mr. Pasi's shop.
