Music at Trinity

Trinity Parish is a place where music and worship are interwoven, where many voices come together in praise and thanksgiving to celebrate the presence of the spirit of God.

From the high point of the candlelit midnight mass on Christmas Eve to light summer fare, music is an essential ingredient in any Trinity service. Highlighted by the magnificent, historic Hook and Hastings organ, the repertoire ranges from canticles to perennial favorites like Mozart and Mendelssohn to spirituals. Parishioners are encouraged to request their favorite hymns.

Drawing on the rich music programs at the prominent New England Conservatory, a choir of gifted amateur and professional singers perform under the guidance of our accomplished music director.

We are fortunate to hear solo singers and guest instrumentalists—a trumpet at Easter, joint choirs with sister churches, and violins, harps, cellos, recorders, hand bells, and oboes during various times of the year. The Newton North Family Singers join with our choir for a service in Advent to present larger seasonal choral works.

A family choir comprising children, teens and adults from the congregation performs several times a year. Student singers, trumpeters, pianists, violinists, and flutists from the congregation and choir have all performed.
