Choir

UUCSS Choir

The choir is the heart of the music program. From September to June, the choir sings at worship services, usually two or three Sundays a month, and at other church events. There are two ways to sing with the choir:

  • Join us for rehearsal on Thursday evenings at 7:30 in the Sanctuary;
  • Participate in a Flexible Rehearsal Arrangement.

The choir is open to everyone who enjoys singing. Some experience with reading music is helpful, but not necessary. It has been said that the choir has more fun than any other group in the church. Laughter accompanies most rehearsals!

Flexible Rehearsal Arrangement

A Flexible Rehearsal Arrangement is a work-from-home, self study opportunity. Simply pick up a rehearsal packet from the music desk, learn the music at home using the CD provided, and join us for a dress rehearsal and Sunday morning performance. Packets are available two weeks in advance; all details are included and everyone is welcome. Pick up the Flexible Rehearsal Arrangement Frequent Asked Questions available on the music desk (1st floor, Sanctuary Bldg.) or contact the Music Directors for more info.

Mass Choir

Performing for the first time in 2003, this is a group designed to be a robust and vibrant choir that gathers for special music services. For our holiday service celebrating Hanukah, Christmas, and Kwanzaa, the Mass choir is accompanied by the Orchestra for a Musical Extravaganza Sunday.

Children’s Choir

The Children’s Choir is a growing ensemble at UUCSS. Children work with our Music Directors during Children’s Chapel and during other rehearsal times.
