Music at OUC
Music is an important part of the life and worship at OUC. Music for adults, music for children, music for all of us! Our worship is musical, and functions to proclaim and support the Scriptures. We raise our voices in congregational song to praise God, to pray, to proclaim God's word and to tell the story of God's people. Anthems and hymns are carefully selected to support the scriptures and theme for each Sunday of the church year, ensuring a cohesive and inspiring experience.
The choir explores and sings a broad range of music in many styles, unison and harmony. Any Sunday may include Gregorian Chant or Spirituals, Baroque or Taizé, Renaissance or contemporary music. The choir is spiritually and musically centered. Rehearsals are energetic and fast paced, covering weekly hymns, responses, and 6-10 anthems at each practice. Vocal technique is discussed and applied to the music.
If you have the desire and ability to sing, play an instrument, or worship your heart out — there is a musical home for you Oakridge United Church. Please contact the church office at oakridgeunited@gmail.com.
