The music at Resurrection is an important
part of our community. Under the direction of Sanelma Sutton,
Organist and Assistant Director, the choir sings at the 10 am Sunday worship service. In
addition to supplementing the congregational singing in the service, the choir performs an
anthem each Sunday during the Offertory.
The music performed ranges from Bach,
Mendelssohn to Rutter, and gospel favorites. From time to time, brass, percussion, and
other musical instruments are added for a unique presentation. Throughout the year,
special pieces are performed as part of the worhsip service or at separate times, such as
Vespers. Past years have included a performance of Steven Porter's Jazz Mass, with an
added jazz trio, Advent Lessons and Carols, Handel's Messiah, and selections from Faure's
Requiem. A Christmas Eve Concert is an annual event.
From September through the end of May, the
choir rehearses Wednesday evenings at 7:30 pm in the nave then on Sunday mornings at 9:00
am prior to the 10:00 am regular worship service. During the months of June, July, and
August, a summer choir rehearses only on Sunday mornings at 9:00 am for the 10:00 am
service. We welcome new members at any time to participate on a regular basis or at
seasonal times of the year.
Whether in the choir loft or in the
congregation, we welcome all to "make a joyful noise."
