There is room for all voices and instruments, regardless of your experience. If you are interested, please contact Irina Georgieva, Music Director, at music@uuneedham.org, or use the sign-up form below.
First Parish Choir
The choir rehearses on Sunday mornings when it’s participating in the service. The choir meets from September through June.
Choir participation can be on a “per term” or “per event” basis, and with schedule flexibility. More information on such arrangements is available by talking to Music Director.
The First Parish choir consists of 15-20 voices, singing 2-3 Sundays a month, and exploring a great array of repertoire, from medieval to Gospel, the sacred to the poetically secular.
