Music Programs
Joyful Voices
Christ Church is currently enrolling singers and musicians for our new intergenerational contemporary band and choir. For more information contact Dottie Cameron and go to our Joyful Voices page.

Rehersals: Tuesday nights 7pm, Thursday nights 7pm, & Sunday 9am
It is strongly reccomended that members attend at least one of the weekly rehersals and Sunday's 9am rehersal.

Psalm 150 states: "Praise the Lord with timbrel and dance, praise him with strings and pipe...Praise him with loud-clanging cymbals, Let everything that has breath praise the Lord, Hallelujah!"

Music is a central aspect of worship at Christ Church, and we are grateful to have a talented group of adults and children participating in this important area. Musical groups at Christ Church are:
  • Children's Choir
  • Senior Choir
  • Children's Bell Choir
  • Senior Bell Choir
  • Instruments
  • Soloists & Small Ensembles

Our Senior Choir regularly provides the music for our church services, while all groups perform at our many special events.

Music remains the cornerstone of many of our special events, which often utilize talent from within and outside of the church. Among those events was Yulefest 2007, a spectacular evening of theater, song and dance celebrating 18th century American history and the significant role our church played in this time period.

The youth of Christ Church are very active in our music program. Members of our growing youth choir participate annually in the Central Connecticut Chorister Guild Anthem service, and the youths from the Bell Choir provide blissful music to a number of our services throughout the year.

For more information about the Senior and Youth Choirs, please contact Dottie Cameron at (203) 876-8081. For more information about the Bell Choir, please contact Marilyn Olbrys (203) 375-5713.

We are always interested in ideas and suggestions to celebrate and create community outreach through the arts.
