Music
Music occupies a central place in the life of Good Shepherd because it is the fabric of our liturgy, which lies at the heart of what we do and who we are as a parish of the Episcopal Church. By participating together in the music of the liturgy, we join the celestial song that echoes throughout creation. Every voice is indispensable, whether sweet, shrill, strong, shy, shaky, or sure.
For news and notes about our weekly liturgical music, guest musicians, and special musical events, please visit the Shepherd Sounds blog, or write to Eric Mellenbruch and ask to be added to the music mailing list.
Choirs
Choirs of children and adults have the talents, training, and time to take on particular roles in the liturgy according to the occasion. They are places for musical growth, spiritual formation, and community-building.

Though music is a fundamental part of all our Sunday and Holy Day liturgies, some services are particularly noteworthy for their musical settings.
Music Leadership
In addition to the choristers, choir parents, and other parishioners who constitute and make possible our ministry of music, these individuals lead that ministry in particular ways.
Instruments
Though the human voice is our primary vehicle of prayer and praise, other instruments – just like choirs and cantors – lead and enrich our liturgy in various ways.
