The reportoire of the adult choir is varied, with its foundation
in classical sacred music from all periods, with a special nod
to the
Renaissance period. Hymns are carefully chosen to fit the lectionary,
and the congregation sings over 250 hymns during the church year.
The choir also offers, as anthems, early American and traditional
music of various sorts, as well as original music by area composers
and choir members. The choral music is usually Soprano, Alto, Tenor,
Bass, although occasional treble choir and split part compositions
are also offered.
The music program at Emmanuel also includes offerings of special
music events, such as choral evensong, concerts and musical dramas. |
