MUSIC
Sing and Ring to the Lord! There are many musical opportunities to participate in at Saint David’s. Our musical leadership and talented parishioners provide listening beauty and joy that uplifts our hearts. Our music program welcomes all voices and ages across the southeastern Connecticut region including Groton, Ledyard, Gales Ferry, Waterford, Montville and beyond!
Senior Choir
The Senior Choir leads the congregational singing and offers an anthem at many of the 9:30 worship services. Along with friends from the community and a string trio we present a service of Lessons and Carols each December during Advent and a special musical Good Friday service. Our Christmas Eve service also includes organ, piano, choir, and handbells. And the choir is joined by a trumpeter for Easter services. We rehearse every Thursday evening, and always welcome new members.
CHILDREN’S CHOIR
The children have music each week as part of the Godly Play Sunday School program and often sing for worship on Sunday. Children also participate in Youth Sunday and the Christmas Pageant. The children ring 3 octaves of Malmark Choir Chime as part of the Sunday School music program.
HANDBELLS
Saint David’s has three octaves of Malmark hand bells and three octaves of Malmark hand chimes. Our Senior Handbell Choir, JuBELLee, rehearses each Monday evening and plays for the 9:30 worship service once a month. We also have a handbell quartet that plays for worship once a month, and look forward to starting a youth handbell choir.
INSTRUMENTALISTS
We strongly encourage parishioners, young and old, to share their instrumental talents with us at worship. This can be done as solos or as accompaniment for one of the singing groups.
