::MUSIC @ FPC::
Music plays an important part in Reformed Worship. Throughout centuries the rich musical traditions of our faith have spoken to the hearts of people. We strive to use a variety of fresh musical elements in worship: from our pipe organ and Kirk Choir, to the Worship Team, to the Handbell and Children’s Choirs, to the modern sung responses of Taizé and Iona, we are a community of faith seeking to worship God in times of exuberant praise, joy, contemplation and reverence. The hymns and songs sung in worship range from the most ancient, to the most modern.
Special services and musical events are held throughout the year including:
- Advent & Lenten Vespers Services
- Christmas Eve Lessons & Carols
- Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Sunday services.
- The Friends of Music Concert Series featuring organ, instrumental and vocal recitals, and choral-orchestral concerts. To learn more, or to become a member of the Friends of Music, click here.
Musical Ensembles:
Worship Team - The Worship Team leads music and prayers in the 9:00 am service. They feature guitar, bass, drums, piano and singers. Anyone with experience, or who has a desire to lead in contemporary Christian worhsip is encouraged to join! Play the violin or the trumpet? There's always room for new musicians!
The Kirk Choir - Our adult choir sings for the 10:30 a.m. service each Sunday, Christmas Eve Lessons & Carols, Easter Sunday with Brass, and a major Choral-orchestral work each year. We sing a wide variety of music and welcome anyone, new or experienced to join us for rehearsals on Wednesday evenings from 7:15- 9:00 p.m.
The Kirk Handbells – Our bell ringers get to experience the joy of music making while offering their musical skills to the congregation. Anyone with a desire to learn to read music is encouraged to attend! Rehearsals are Wednesday evenings from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m.
Children’s Choir - A wonderful opportunity for children to learn about God through music. Your child will learn to read music, develop their confidence, have the opportunity to play exciting percussion and hand chime instruemnts - and have some fun! Rehearsals are on Wednesday afternoons and the children sing once a month in worship.
People of all musical talents and abilities are invited to join in the music making at First Presbyterian Church of Fullerton. Whatever instrument you bring, guitar, percussion, cello, or your voice ... you are welcome here!
