Westminster Presbyterian Church

Comprised of 50-plus singers, including a quartet of professional soloists, the Westminster Choir provides musical leadership and choral offerings for the 9:00 a.m. (more "traditional") service on Sundays from September through May, and for the 10:00 a.m. service during June, as well as occasional special services and concerts. In addition to weekly anthems covering a broad range of musical expression, major works presented in recent years have included complete Mass settings of Haydn, Mozart, and Schubert; Requiem settings of Fauré, Brahms, and Rutter; and works of contemporary American composers such as Daniel Pinkham, John Leavitt, K. Lee Scott, Leonard Bernstein, Randol Bass, Mack Wilberg, and Arnold Freed.

The choir has undertaken four European tours: Austria (2000), Italy (2004), France (2007), and Germany (2010). Two CD recordings have been made featuring the Westminster Choir: All Hail the Power, featuring favorite anthems and hymns; and Joy to the World, featuring carols and anthems for the Christmas season. Both are available at the church office or through the choir director, Paul Fleckenstein.

The Reverberations Handbell Choir brings a new dimension of sound to our worship experience. The choir rings five octaves of handbells and three octaves of handchimes. The choir rings in worship every four to six weeks. The choir welcomes members in high school and beyond who can read a musical score and commit to the rehearsal and worship schedule.

The Youth Choir is an integral part of the larger 180° Youth Ministry at Westminster and allows middle school and high school youth the opportunity to share their faith through music. The choir sings different styles of music in worship once a month.

A creative approach to Christian Education, D.R.U.M. is designed as an interactive musical experience that utilizes songs, games, movement and instruments to teach Bible stories, worship leadership, and global music.
