Our Organist is Mary Bolognini. She comes to us with almost 3 decades of music experience. She is highly gifted and has settled into our congregation very nicely. She is also available to play for weddings and funerals within the congregation.
Choir and Bellchoir Director is Elise Blunt. She has been serving in our congregation for about a year. She, too, is highly gifted and has begun working with our different ensembles.
For those who want to explore singing and/or ringing at Lutheran Church of the Master, consider joining one or both groups.
Singing together and playing bells is a fun, community-building, and healthy activity. Throughout the year we explore a wide variety of musical styles.
Got a voice? Play an instrument? Want to learn handbells? …We Want You!
The Church of the Master Choir is for individuals of high school age through adult. Their repertoire includes a broad spectrum of traditional choral literature as well as contemporary anthems and service music. The choir's focus is to lead musically in Sunday worship twice a month. Brush-up rehearsals are held at 8:15am the Sundays the choir sings. Rehearsals are held Wednesday evenings from 7:30-8:30pm.
The Church of the Master Ringers is the intergenerational handbell choir open to anyone in 5th Grade or older. Kids and adults who are interested in learning more about bells will be given basic music instruction (no previous experience is necessary), learn proper ringing techniques, and prepare simple pieces for worship. The handbell choir will play for Sunday worship every two to three months on an arranged basis. Rehearsals are held Wednesday evenings from 6:30-7:30pm.
Occasionally during worship, additional vocalists and instrumentalists are used to enhance the worship experience, either in a solo or ensemble arrangement.
