O God, whom saints and angels delight to worship in heaven: Be ever present with your servants who seek through art and music to perfect the praises offered by your people on earth; and grant to them even now glimpses of your beauty, and make them worthy at length to behold it unveiled for evermore; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. -BCP p819

Music at St. James is an offering to celebrate the importance of music in our communal life, and to continue celebrating the restoration of our E.M. Skinner Opus 220 organ. We have an exciting selection of performances for the 2007-2008 season. Click on the link below for more information....
Singing and music are an important part of Anglican worship. Have a talent? We need you....

Weekly rehearsals:

Adult Choir: Monday, 7:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. in the Choir Room.  On the first Monday of the month, we will conclude choir rehersal with a sung Compline service in Hallam Chapel (all are invited!)

We are always looking to add new singers to our choirs—it’s an important part of our worship. In particular, this year we need tenors and basses in the Adult Choir; and new members for the handbell choirs. For additional information about joining one of our choirs, speak with Andrew Howell.
