The Music ministries of Travis Park UMC

TPUMC has a wide variety of music ministries occurring at any given moment.
Our ensembles include

• The Sanctuary Choir sings everything from Lauridsen and Bach to Moses Hogan and Glen Burleigh.
• The Celebration Band performs mainly contemporary Black gospel and some jazz, blues and Latin pieces. The band is composed of volunteer and paid musicians. The instrumentation consists of electric bass, drums, auxiliary percussion, two electric guitars, keyboards, and saxophone.
• The Emmaus Youth Choir (composed of youth from 6-12 grades) that sings in worship and takes an annual choir tour. Prior tours have taken the choir literally across the country and into Canada.
• The Adult handbell ensemble which performs seasonally.
• The Children's Music Ministry does everything from standard anthems to musicals to world music, to learning guitar, and drama to all points in between!
• We are also developing "The Arts at Travis Park" as the sanctuary of TPUMC hosts over 60 concerts and other arts events a year.
• We are very blessed to have a Steinway D Concert Grand Piano (no. 97), a Wolfe tracker organ, and two beautiful harpsichords.
• In the past the music ministries have included such diverse things as drum circles and dance.
• We have also hosted many choral clinicians, hymnologists, jazz musicians and the like!
