Instrumental Opportunities |
|
|
All are welcome! It may be hard to believe, but every week and every
season at Calvary Church, guitars and drums play alongside tubas and
|
saxophones to lead us in worship and celebration. There truly is an
opportunity for every instrumentalist.

Orchestra |
|
|
Participation in the orchestra is open to middle and high
school players and adult players with no audition. Instrumentalists are
encouraged to be WORSHIPPERS FIRST and musicians second. This instrumental
group welcomes all classical and contemporary instruments, and appropriate
scores and charts are provided and marked for players
|
each week. Take-home rehearsal packets are also available upon
request. Orchestra rehearses Wednesdays 8:00 - 9:00p and Sundays 8:30a
(before A service) and 10:15a (before B service). Primary and secondary
keyboardists are welcome to join this group after a Director's Interview /
Audition.

Handbells |
|
|
Participation is open to middle and high school students and adults.
Ringing experience and/or keyboard knowledge helpful, but not required.
Format is dependent on each playing position, so those participating must be
extremely dedicated
|
to rehearsal and performance schedules. Players will acquire
excellent sight reading and teamwork skills, and have a lot of fun.
Rehearsals are Tuesday nights, 7:00 - 8:30.

Seasonal Celebrations |
|
|
Special seasons like Advent and Independence Day often bring
additional opportunities for instrumentalists. These special musical events
are
|
planned with convenient and compact rehearsal schedules, making it
easy for those who want to join us for only a week or two.

Loaner Instruments |
|
|
For those who would like to play, we have a limited inventory of
instruments that can be
|
borrowed. If you have one that's collecting dust in the closet,
consider donating it to Worship & Arts.
