Chancel Choir

Each spring, the Chancel Choir and orchestra perform a major work as a part of the St. Andrew Concert Series. Past works include the Fauré Requiem, Haydn's Nelson Mass, Brahms' Requiem and Vaughan Williams’ Dona nobis pacem. New members are always welcome to join us.

Voices A cappella

Voices A cappella is the only auditioned ensemble at St. Andrew. Each of the 20 members is actively involved in at least one of the other primary adult ensembles. The group sings in worship every first Sunday of the month.

Each year the group sings for several retirement homes and company events. (There are special requirements to be a member of this group.)
