Choirs
Sing with the St. Mark’s Parish Choir!
Singers are needed in all sections for this diverse, enthusiastic, and dedicated group, essential to the beauty and spiritual depth of sung services. We sing music from all periods, perform extended works in concert, and offer Evensong and the Service of Nine Lessons and Carols each season. With the help of our newly-formed Friends of Music at St. Mark’s, this year we will add a gala concert accompanied by an instrumental ensemble.
It is our privilege and honor, our “care and delight” to sing every Sunday (September through early June/Trinity Sunday) and for all major holidays of the church year.
Weekday rehearsals are held on Thursday evenings, 7-8:45pm. If you love to sing, have some sight-reading ability, and would enjoy this labor of love with a wonderful group of people. Learn how you can be a part of our choir.
