Music

Music has long been an important part of worship at St. Andrew's.

The Choirs of St. Andrew's provide reverent accompaniment to the liturgy with hymns, psalms, and anthems of musical praise. There is a place for everyone in our choirs. Come make a joyful noise unto the Lord!

The adult Chancel Choir and the children's Treble Choir sing at the Sunday morning 10:30 service. The Chancel Choir usually rehearses in the sanctuary on Thursday evenings, and the children rehearse on Sunday Morning before the family worship service. Please check the newsletter or call the church office for any weekly changes in the rehearsal schedule.

We are blessed to have Dr. Joseph A. Eppink as our organist and choirmaster. Dr. Eppink is a professor of music at the College of St. Rose. Joseph has a gift for choosing music that glorifies God and touches the heart, as well as bringing forth the best from our choristers and pipe organ.

In addition to regular service music with choir and organ, sometimes piano, the musical offering at St. Andrew's includes occasional sacred concerts from an endowed series named in memory of Russell Field, our organist and choirmaster from 1947 until 1976, and recitals given by music students from the College of St. Rose.

The Music Program at St. Andrew's continues to grow. Please join us in moving it ahead.
