Music At Trinity
 

 


Since 1824, when the first Methodist church was built on this site, music has played a large role in the life of this congregation.

Under the direction of our Minister of Music, Debbie Fingas, the Chancel Choir has grown to over 30 skilled singers. Included within the choir are soprano, tenor and bass soloists as well as our much beloved Women's Trio. On occcasion, the congregation also enjoys guest musicians including pianists, violinists, flautists, and soloists from our wider community.

Similarly, the youth music program has long played an integral role of the worship life of the congregation. Also led by Debbie Fingas, the program features the 'High Spirits' junior choir, with approximately 8-10 singers (ages 8 and up) and the 'Joyful Noise' junior choir with approximately 15 singers (ages 4 to 8). In addition, a drama group, 'Many Gifts One Spirit' (grades 7 and up) under the combined direction of the Minister of Youth Minister and other members of the ministerial team combines drama and music to enrichen the worship experience here at Trinity.

The organ is a three manual Artisan Classic digital with 71 stops and also features a "floating fourth" manual and MIDI.

In addition, the church benefits from the unrestricted use of a Steinway baby grand piano, which belongs to the community choir, La Jeunesse and finds its permanent home in our sanctuary.

The junior choirs make frequent use of our collection of Orff instruments including timpani, glockenspiels, metallophones and xylophones.

Trinity United Church also plays a large role in the musical life of the community as a whole by providing a home to both the La Jeunesse Northumberland Youth Choirs and the Northumberland Orchestra and Choir. Both groups use the facilities of Trinity United Church for rehearsal and presentation of concerts.
