The Choir of Adult and Girls with HS Singers

As part of the celebrations surrounding the Centennial of The Choir of Men and Boys in 1994, and with the support of the Rector, Wardens, Vestry and People of Grace Church, The Girls’ Choir for young ladies was established. Five young choristers came forward to become the charter class. The Girls’ Choir has taken its place alongside The Choir of Men and Boys and The Adult Choir in the musical leadership of the worship of Grace Church.

The Girls’ Choir is made up of some 20 girls and a professional ensemble of 6 to 12 adult altos, tenors and basses. It is based, like the Choir of Men and Boys on the Anglican Cathedral model of Choir where the girls do the work of professional soprano vocalists. The repertoire offered by the senior ensemble is based on this tradition in SATB configuration.
With the establishment of the High School Division of Grace Church School, a new High School Chorister program was begun in the Choir.

High School Students study the appropriate vocal part and work alongside the Adult singers to support the soprano part sung by the Girls’ Choir.

BLESS, O LORD, us thy servants who minister in thy temple; grant that what we sing with our lips we may believe in our hearts, and what we believe in our hearts we may show forth in our lives; through Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN.
