The Choir of Central United Methodist Church

The 35 voice Central United Methodist Chancel  Choir sings every Sunday and special celebrations –  approximately 45 services a year. In recent years  these singers have performed  works such as  Messiah – Handel,  Gloria – Vivaldi,  Lux Aeterna -Lauridson,  Ceremony of Carols – Brittain  ,Mass In G – Schubert, Requiem – Ellingboe, Requiem- Schumann.  The choir has over 500 anthems in its repertoire and has sung in a variety of foreign languages and musical styles.  We celebrate the gospel music tradition by combining with Fellowship Baptist gospel choir for our Easter Saturday celebration – Great Getting’ Up Mourning and a Thanksgiving service in November.  The choir sings with our 24 piece  church orchestra  for Christmas,  Easter, and  special services. They will sing with Robert Schumann’s Requiem with the Symphony Orchestra of Albuquerque this spring. The choir can be seen every week on KAZQ TV – Sundays at 11am and 7pm.
