Music and Sacred Arts

Music and the Arts

Music is the heart of worship at First Glendale. The acoustics of our Sanctuary are ideal for both choral and instrumental music. Whether a solo, the voices of our Chancel Choir, the upbeat music of or Contemporary praise band or the uplifting sound of people joinging their voices in praise, you will find music a blessing at First Glendale.

Chancel Choir

The Chancel Choir provides music each Sunday at the 9:30 a.m. traditional worship service. They accompany the hymns, lead the responses and provide a variety of music in their Sunday Anthems. The choir also provides special music during Advent, Lent, as well as a Christmas or Easter Cantata.

Chancel Choir practice are held in the music room on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. and newcomers are ALWAYS welcome! The Chancel Choir is led by our Traditional Worship Music Director Larry Del Rae.

Praise Band

Our Praise Band provides music for the 11:00 a.m. contemporary worship service each Sunday. If you are looking for a dynamic, upbeat approach to worship, we invite you to worship at the Contemporary Service with music by our Praise Band. The band is led by our Contemporary Worship Music Director Sharnel Green.
