All ages and vocal abilities are welcome! The choir is supported by the large choir from the Parker United Methodist Church but the director, Kurt Stroman, welcomes any and all community members that would like to be a part. Kurt says "you don't have to have a perfect voice or know the piece by heart, you just need to love to sing and want to join in the experience of putting your voice with 80 other souls and an orchestra and let God do the rest." If you have your own copy of the Schirmer score you are asked to bring it, otherwise there will be copies to purchase or use available at the first rehearsal. If you would like to own your own copy of Schirmers Score Handels Messiah You can order it by clicking here:
