Music is an integral part of the life and work at Westworth United Church. We are blessed with over one hundred musicians in five different ensembles who give faithfully of their time and talent weekly to prepare anthems, both choral and instrumental, that enhance the worship experience at Westworth. We are fortunate to have an amazing group of talented and dedicated conductors who coax the best out of our volunteer choristers and instrumentalists!
You are invited to participate in this year’s season! We welcome all of you who love music and who love to participate in choral and instrumental ensembles. Please see below for an ensemble that is right for you or for a family member. Come join us!
