Music

Music is woven into many aspects of life at St. Mark's. Choirs for adults and children, small ensembles and soloists regularly participate in worship services singing a variety of choral music and supporting congregational participation. Anchored in the regular offerings at services, special choral evensong services, and holy day offerings, the choir reaches the larger community as they participate in community services that can include diverse offerings such as early music, gospel, and longer choral concert pieces with orchestra appropriate to our sacred space. The St. Marks organ is a Holtkamp 31 rank instrument with three manuals.

The Music Studio also offers private instruction on piano and other instruments, while occasional Christian Education classes explore the meaning of hymns, spirituals, and masterworks like the St. Matthew Passion. Interim Director of Music, James Kreger, oversees the St. Mark's music program, serves as church organist, and directs interested parishioners to helpful Music Resources until the return of Dr. Keith Reas from his sabbatical.
