About our Choir

Calvary has the distinct identity of being the only church in the diocese that provides a traditional Anglican worship service including choral anthems drawn from the entire breadth of classical ecclesiastical choral repertoire from the Renaissance through the 21st Century.  The strictly traditional services are mainly on festival days, Lessons and Carols in the week leading up to Christmas, Christmas Eve Mass and the Great Vigil of Easter.  Additional traditional services, such as Evensong, are also added throughout the liturgical year.  In addition, hymns and mass settings from the Episcopal Hymnal 1928 provide opportunity for congregational participation as well as Anglican chant, Plainsong chant and Taize.

 

Calvary has implemented a non-traditional, experimental service on the first Sunday of each month with its focus being a more participatory.  There is no choir for this service.  While the other Sundays maintain a mostly traditional focus a blending of styles is beginning to be experimented with.
