Music at Christ Church Glendale

Choirs: Four choirs regularly perform at both Sunday Services and special services. These choirs are:

Adult Choir – open to all singers age 14 and above. The Adult Choir sings regularly at the 11:00 a.m. Sunday Service during the year.

Schola Cantorum – open to all children ages 7-14. The Schola Cantorum sings regularly at the 9:00 a.m. Sunday Service during the year. Through regular rehearsal, these young choristers not only build a repertoire of anthems to be used during the Church year, but they also learn to use the Hymnal and the Prayer Book, and gain a lifelong appreciation for music.

Chorus Angelorum – open to young women ages 14-21. The Chorus Angelorum sings about once a month at either the 9:00 a.m. or 11:00 a.m. Sunday Service.

The English Handbell Choir - open to musicians age 14 and above. The English Handbell Choir performs about once a month at either the 9:00 a.m. or 11:00 a.m. Sunday Service.

Special Services: Other opportunities to hear our choirs contribute to the worship and ministry of CCG include Christmas Eve, Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, and the Easter Vigil (Saturday evening before Easter Sunday).
