The Choir

Holy Trinity Church has always fostered excellence in the use of traditional organ and choral music in its worship.

The choir sings at the 9:30 am Mass each Sunday and on the evening of the third Sunday of the month presents a Choral Evensong. The choir provides special music for the major festivals – during Passiontide, the Easter Triduum (Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Eve Vigil), Trinity Sunday, Advent Sunday and Christmas Midnight services. Its traditional choral repertoire extends from plainsong to contemporary with some emphasis on music of the Renaissance and Baroque periods.

Rehearsals 

  • Tuesdays: 6:45pm-9:00pm

  • Before the Sunday Mass: 8:15am-9:15 am

  • Before the monthly Sunday Choral Evensong: 4:45pm-5:45pm

Choir Membership
New singers are always welcome to audition. Some music sight-reading ability is required. Membership is normally restricted to people aged 18 or over, although younger people are welcome to enquire. Please enquire with the Director of Music at music@trinityvalley.org.au
