Music at Saint Timothy's Church - Lent and Holy Week

selected by George Tobias, Organist / Choirmaster


It's always enjoyable (and educational) to look at just what music is being used in other liturgical churches across the country. We can learn a great deal about liturgical programming, about seasonal appropriateness, and about what music is available ... some of which may be tucked away in our own libraries! Here's a season's worth of music planned for Saint Timothy's Episcopal Church in Roxborough PA, where George Tobias is Organist/Choirmaster.
