Join the Choir!
Boys and girls do not have to be members of Christ Church Greenwich, nor of any particular faith, to audition for the choirs. We are looking for young people who have a natural voice and who can clearly sort differences in notes that they hear. Previous musical training or singing experience is not required for audition or membership. Learn more...

Compline Choir
Comprised of volunteers, the Compline Choir provides a twenty minute service of sung prayers on Sundays at 6:00 pm. The simple act of praying in community is made even more magical by sitting in a quiet space, dimly lit with twinkling votives, surrounded by the fragrance of incense and the pure tone of a choir chanting the ancient words of prayer.

Bell Choir
The Christ Church Bell Choir is well known for its high standard of musicality. Performances are given throughout the year on Sundays, High & Holy Days, as well as special events and memorials.
