The Chancel Choir
The Chancel Choir of First Presbyterian Church is a group of volunteer singers that provides music for Sunday morning services throughout the year. In addition to singing hymns with the congregation during the services, the group performs an anthem for each Sunday service and, when appropriate, provides choral responses during the service. The Choir also performs regularly on the TGIF Concert Series, presenting masterworks by notable composers, often with soloists from the choir.
After enjoying this concert, you may want to become a part of the beautiful singing at First Presbyterian Church and sing a wonderful range of music from choral classics to folk music from around the world! Contact Linda at lraney@fpcsantafe.org for more information.
