All Saints' Episcopal Church - Friends of Music

Music is an integral part of the liturgy and life of All Saints’ Episcopal Church. Under the direction of Joseph Ripka, the music program includes All Saints’ Music School, committed to developing and encouraging musical skill and appreciation in each student, regardless of age or ability. In an artistic and nurturing environment, our instructors offer a first-rate musical education for all through professional instruction and inspiring musical experiences as an outreach program of All Saints’ Episcopal Church and Day School. ASMS is open to all persons regardless of religious affiliation. You need not be a member of All Saints' to receive music instruction.

All Saints' also offers a Senior Choir, a professional-level Chamber Choir, a Handbell choir, Choral Fellows, and Choral Scholars. The music staff conducts a Chorister program open to all community youth K-12, as well as for boys and girls at the Day School. The choirs of All Saints’ present periodic concerts and enrich the worship at Sunday services and special services. Choral Evensong is oftentimes preceded by Organ Recitals performed by amazing talents on All Saints’ gorgeous Visser mechanical action organ, which attracts some of the best instrumentalists to its keys and pedals.
