Music
Make a Joyful Noise to the lord
Music is an integral part of worship here at Myers Park Pres and is a much-beloved element of worship for both our traditional and contemporary services. Whether you keep rhythm on a bass, sing loudly in the shower, or simply want to learn more, all are welcome to share the musical gifts God has given you.
No audition required to participate in any of our excellent ensembles.
Choirs
Chancel Choir
All singers are welcome to join the Chancel Choir, which provides choral leadership of our traditional worship in the sanctuary. Some music-reading ability, pitch-matching skills, and a love of singing required.

Alpha & Omega Choir
This is an excellent opportunity for elementary school children to learn proper choral singing, beginning note reading skills, and teamwork. This ensemble will contribute to certain worship services throughout the year.

Pipe Organs
Sanctuary Organ
Our main sanctuary organ is a 75-rank Casavant, Op. 2625 (1961) which is played from a four manual French terraced style console (2008). In addition to the main instrument, the gallery organ is a 25-rank Casavant and is played from a three manual English style console. Both organs may be played as separate instruments or united as one instrument from either console.
Chapel Organ
Our chapel organ is an Allen Renaissance Quantum model Q285 with English Cathedral specification.
Carillon
Our carillon comprises 27 bells (fully chromatic in two octaves from C to C with the addition of the upper C sharp and D sharp bells). Our instrument was built in 1984 by the John Taylor Company of England.
Carillonneurs
The carillon (the tower bells) is played before and after Sunday services, as well as for weddings, funerals, and other services as requested. The ability to read music is necessary and piano training is extremely helpful.
Contact Lexi Kramer to get involved.
