For the last two decades, St. Michael’s has been a parish known for musical diversity.  Yet, within the varied fabric of many musical styles and expressions, one thread has remained constant:  commitment.  What you’ll discover in St. Michael’s Music Program is commitment to musical stewardship, commitment to our different choir families and commitment to a loving Lord, the Great Giver of all our musical gifts.

Under Ms. Ruth Witt, Director of Music, traditional Anglican repertoire, classic choral anthems and modern choral compositions that portray the beauty of excellent musical craftsmanship are very much alive at St. Michael’s.  We are also compelled to explore the musical variety the Episcopal Church offers, singing gospel music from Lift Every Voice and Sing and contemporary music from Wonder, Love and Praise.

Choir members train musically, liturgically and spiritually to serve as worship leaders within the parish.  A combined curriculum of vocal instruction, choir rehearsal, music theory, music history, lectionary study, Anglican Church history and in-depth study of the Book of Common Prayer is administered throughout the choir year.  The result for any choir members who fully commits to the program is an experience rich with musical beauty, artistic challenge and spiritual depth.
