When in our music
God is glorified,
and adoration leaves no room for pride,
It is as though
the whole creation cried
Alleluia! Alleluia!

Hymn 420:
The Hymnal 1982.

Music

Music ministries at Trinity Memorial Church provide leadership for worship and offer parishioners the opportunity for Christian service, spiritual growth, and musical education.

Music at Trinity is offered to the glory of God. Through music we obey God’s instructions to sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs and praise Him with instruments. In the process, we experience music’s power to transcend the temporal. As an integral part of our worship, music enhances scriptural teaching and provides opportunities for ministry by those who are called to participate in the music program, from the youngest of us to the oldest. By dedication and rehearsal, we seek to perfect our praises to God.

The principal resources for congregational singing are the Hymnal 1982 and Wonder, Love, and Praise, one of the supplemental hymnals approved for use in the Episcopal Church.

Trinity hosts concerts in our sanctuary on a regular basis. The Madrigal Choir of Binghamton sings here frequently and the Music Department at Binghamton University regularly uses Trinity’s facilities for concerts, including recent performances by the University Chamber Chorus, Women’s Chorus, and Harpur Chorale. We also host periodic concerts of chamber music as well as organ recitals and other programs
