Thursday evening rehearsals are assisted by four professional soloists who also serve as section leaders. The Chancel Choir offers several special programs throughout the year, including a hymn festival and an oratorio or cantata with orchestral accompaniment during Advent and Lent. Members range from students to retirees. Using a four-octave set of Schulmerich bells and led by Mr. Bunker, this group rehearses weekly and plays for Sunday worship several times each year.
New members are always welcome and no experience is needed.
The ability to read music is a plus. Huff Requiem David C. Huff, composer of the Requiem, which was performed on Maundy Thursday, April 12, wrote the following letter to Minister of Music Lloyd Max Bunker. Mr. Huff had received a compact disc recording of the Epworth-Euclid Chancel Choir's performance of his piece. Thanks very much for the unexpected gift of the CD and bulletins from your church's Maundy Thursday service presentation of my Requiem . This piece was conceived as service music so it's particularly gratifying for me whenever it's presented within the confines of a service of worship.
