St. David’s Choir
St. David’s Choir is open to all persons from High School through adults who love to sing. This group provides music for the 10:30 A.M. Holy Eucharist on Sundays between September and May. Additionally, they contribute to special services during Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter, and on other occasions as requested.
The choir rehearses every Thursday evening from 7:00 to 8:30 PM, where the singers prepare liturgical music in a wide variety of styles and voicings. Any adult who loves to sing (regardless of their perceived ability) is encouraged to join in.
Special Musicians
Special guest musicians from within and outside the congregation are encouraged to share their talents during the 10:30am Holy Eucharist.
Our parish has enjoyed including accomplished vocalists and instrumentalists of all ages as soloists or in ensembles, such as violinists, organists, and the diocesan Winds of Harmony.
Wolff Organ
St. David’s purchased a 27-stop tracker organ originally built for St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church in Wilton, Connecticut. It was bought in 2007 and taken to Helmuth Wolffs’ workshop in Canada where it was renovated and updated. It was dedicated in November 2009 when the the rebuilt church was opened. The instrument was retuned and had minor repairs done in December of 2016. We occasionally showcase the instrument with expert recitals and workshops.
