The St. Matthew’s Handbell Choir
Is an ensemble which, in addition to regular worship participation for Sunday morning 10:00 and festival services, often joins with other choirs in special works.

Performs a couple times during the year.

St. Matthew’s McEvers Organ
Built in 1969-70 by James McEvers, now of the McEvers Organ company, this organ contains 58 ranks, 4 divisions plus pedals with a 3 manual console. One of the most unique features of the construction of this instrument was the active parish involvement in the actual construction of the instrument. The building of this organ was truly a community event! Another of the most striking features of this instrument is the Trumpet Rex which stands out in front of the Great Chamber. The design of the placement of this rank of trumpet pipes is unique to the St. Matthew’s organ. During the summer of 2003 the organ was renovated by Levson Organ Co.

The Musical Offering
Preceeding each 10:00 service instrumentalists grades 8 through adult are invited to particpate in the Muscial Offering. This may take the form of a solo work played with or without accompaniment, or a chamber ensemble of several players.
