The music at Church of the Holy Spirit is a vital part of the liturgy. A wide variety of musical styles are sung and played, including traditional Anglican repertoire, spirituals, world music, and contemporary Christian hymns. The choir consists of fifteen talented members who lead the liturgical music, sing beautiful anthems, and also enliven the liturgy with performances on hand bells and percussion instruments. |
