Music Program
Music at ESG is both an offering to God and a ministry to God’s people; it seeks both to enrich worship and to delight. Hymns, anthems, and service music are chosen to compliment the church year, scripture readings and sermons. Our music strives to be both excellent and eclectic, representing the best of every period and style - and, increasingly, from many parts of the globe. Services featuring Celtic, Gospel, Jazz, African-American, Latin-American and contemporary global music punctuate the church year.
ESG's Director of Music
"In June 2011, Peter Merrick submitted his resignation as he moves on to a new opportunity. We are very grateful for the time, some 18 years, he has spent with ESG providing excellence with both the choir and musical support to worship.
We are delighted to welcome Fred Graham, a well known church musician and professor of sacred music at Emmanuel College, to be our interim choir director from September 18, 2011 to June 30, 2012.
Fred will be a wonderful replacement for Peter and will continue the excellent music program we have at ESG. Fred was Peter’s first choice and is a familiar face to us at ESG, having substituted for Peter in the past and participated in some of our musical galas."
-- Doug Reid, Chair Governing Council
