The Choir to Compete in the Jubilation Chorus Challenge

The Epworth-Euclid Chancel Choir has been selected as one of six finalists in the first annual WCLV/UCC Jubilation Chorus Challenge! Selected out of 27 competing choirs, the competition was open to choirs in any house of worship in six surrounding counties. The final round will take place on Friday evening, May 9 and Saturday morning, May 10, at Pilgrim Congregational Church in Tremont. This round is open to the public and there is no admission charge, so please come and support your choir as they share their musical gifts with the world! If you’re unable to attend but still wish to hear the performance, it will be broadcast live on WCLV and over the Internet for the whole world to hear! As soon as the exact date and time are known when the Epworth-Euclid choir will perform, it will be announced during worship services and in the Outlook, so please stay tuned. Congratulations and Hallelujah to the Epworth-Euclid music program!!

Chancel Choir
New members are always welcome to this ensemble of adult voices, singing anthems and other service music for Sunday worship September through June. 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.

Handbell Choir
Using a four-octave set of Schulmerich bells, 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.

Epworth-Euclid Concert Series
Special programs are offered several times throughout the season by Chancel Choir Soloists or guest artists, often with a luncheon or dessert following Sunday worship. The concerts are open to the public.

Our music department provides free practice space to Cleveland Institute of Music students throughout the school year. For organ students, the opportunity to practice on our Skinner pipe organ or the baroque pipe organ in the chapel provides aspiring organists with an extraordinary musical experience. Space is also provided for individual recitals, community concerts, and instrumental competitions.
