First Universalist Choir

Skip to current rehearsal and performance schedule

clef New members are always welcome. Please introduce yourself to our director, Janice Hunton, or another member of the choir.
  • No audition is required
  • However, some experience in part singing and reading music is helpful
clef Rehearsals are every Wednesday evening from 7:00 to about 9:00
  • Warm-ups begin promptly at 7:00
  • The first half of the rehearsal is typically devoted to music for the upcoming Sunday; the second half (after a break) for music to be presented later
clef The choir sings at the 9:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. services an average of twice a month (with summers off).
  • On Sundays when we sing, we usually assemble by 8:15 a.m. to warm up and review the music for that morning
clef We sing a much wider repertoire than most churches--early, modern, sacred, secular, "world", English-language, foreign-language.
  • We all have our likes and dislikes, but the director seeks to balance all styles and provide opportunities for even experienced singers to learn and grow
  • The selection of music is the responsibility of the director, though she values the opinions of the choir in choosing pieces
clef Singing in the choir involves both giving and getting
  • Together, we make an artistic contribution to Sunday services
  • The goal is not to match professional concert choirs, but to do what we can as well as we can -- and enjoy doing so within our church community
