Music


The mission of music at Trinity Episcopal Church is to praise God through
the harmonious correlation of music and liturgy, giving life, beauty,
meaning, purpose and glory in our worship of God.
As a welcoming multicultural congregation with constituents of
Anglo-European, African-American, Indian, Chinese and African descent,
we at Trinity enjoy singing and understand praise to be the most
important role of music in worship. Our choirs are accustomed to singing
a broad spectrum of music with concentration in uplifting traditional
and contemporary music drawn from The Hymnal 1982, Lift Every Voice and
Sing II, Wonder, Love and Praise and Voices Found. Worship music is
enhanced by a state of the art Model MDS Allen Organ, a three-octave set
of English handbells, and a grand piano along with parish and community
instrumentalists.
Join us as we offer praise to God through word and song. A
description of the various groups that support our music ministry and
information on how you may participate follows. To inquire about
any aspect of Trinity’s music program, contact Jeremy Sullivan at
