Want to join?

Do you like to sing? We warmly welcome new members. We invite you to email, phone, or just chat with our music director, Susan Richardson.


Will I have to audition?
No, you won't. We'll invite you to join our Thursday 7:30 p.m. rehearsal just to listen. If you'd like, we'll have you join in. Don't worry if you've never before sung in a choir; we all started the same way.
But I can't read music...

You likely learned enough of the basics in school, and whatever's missing won't be hard. We'll help.

You need not read this to know that the primary duty of a church choir is to enhance church services and support congregational singing. What makes the Bridge Street Choir unique is it's depth of repertoire and experience stemming from its 142 year history, and the accompaniment of one the largest pipe organs you'll find in this country.

Our choir does more than Sundays; throughout the year it also performs a number of Choral Events, and with the help of Musical Friends caps the year with a 'Christmas Spectacular' concert the first Sunday of Advent.

So if it's a choir, where are the gowns? Because we want you to see them as they really are - a group of people from different backgrounds; different generations, some who know each other; some who don't, some who've sung with us for decades; some who joined only weeks ago - who come together and work together. They have a very good time doing this - having your voice amplified by 35 others really is pure fun. If you enjoy and are inspired by their work, that's a bonus. If you really need to know how they look in formal dress, you won't find it here. You have to come Sunday.
