MUSIC

Music plays an important role in the lives of the members of St. Paul 's Church. The Chancel Choir, currently 12 members of various ages, is a hard working and dedicated group. Choir-sponsored events and concert/services are very well supported by the membership of St. Paul 's.

Our choir is very capable of performing difficult and challenging music and often sings a cappella music for morning worship and special services. We are also fortunate to have an Aeolian-Skinner organ, built by one of the premier organ builders in the world, which has been maintained in excellent condition.

St. Paul's is fortunate to possess a considerable "Special Music Fund" that allows us to hire additional musicians for festival days (Christmas, Good Friday, Easter and Pentecost). The choir has been privileged to perform with accomplished musicians associated with world-renowned organizations such as the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Curtis Institute of Music.

We expect to create a handbell Choir, which will enhance our anthems and worship.
