Music at First United Methodist Church of Boulder

Music at First Church Boulder is an important and valued part of worship, fellowship and of the Boulder community.

The church ensembles

The church ensembles include singers and instrumentalists. The Chancel Choir leads singing and provides music for the worship service each week from September until June. This includes a major work with orchestra, aided by singer friends from the community, in December and May.

REGULAR CHANCEL CHOIR REHEARSALS: Wednesdays 6:30 – 8:00 PM in the choir room, and some Sunday mornings before worship (as needed).

Our music ministry welcomes everyone to join. Our ensembles thrive on volunteers, and we hope to see them grow. No audition is required—people of all experience levels, including high school students, are invited. Your participation, whatever your background, will make a difference. Come and Make a Joyful Noise to the Lord!

Please contact Charlotte Warren Sass, Director of Worship Arts, for more information and to sign up.

Our pipe organ

Our church building houses an historic Roosevelt pipe organ, built in 1888 by first cousins of Franklin Roosevelt. With 39 ranks, 34 stops and 2,114 pipes, it is highly prized by both our congregation and the Boulder area.
