Irving Bible Church Choir

Rehearsals

We encourage all who are interested in joining us to simply come to a Wednesday night rehearsal and check things out.

Our Wednesday evening rehearsals are always open. All are welcome to come and listen, or participate! We can provide you with music and a place to sit with the choir the first time you come, whether we know you are coming or not.

If you have any further questions, or would like to talk to one of us before you come, you may email Crystal Elwell for information: celwell@irvingbible.org

Rehearsals tend to be pretty ‘down to business,’ but if you come a little early, or can hang-out for a bit afterwards, we would love to meet you and answer any questions you might have about the choir. Meanwhile, we are very friendly folks, and those around you in your section will help to make you feel right at home during the rehearsal. We do work hard, but we all so have a lot of fun.

We have people in our choir of all different skill levels and experience, and we call upon those with greater experience and skill as choral singers to help lead each section toward our desired result of excellence in terms of artistry, musicality, and worship.

If you do happen to have a lot of choral experience and training, we could really use you, so please consider joining us. We are a very open choir community, and the more skilled musical leaders we have the better we are able to prepare our full choir to lead and perform with excellence!

Sundays

One of the primary tasks for the choir is being part of the worship leadership team at Irving Bible Church. This includes some special events particularly around the seasons of Advent, Christmas, and Holy Week/Easter. But, mainly, the worship leadership aspect of the choir is centered on the regular Sunday worship services at Irving Bible Church.

Often, we will join the choir with the full band at IBC, and simply create a very full and worshipful sound with the band and the choir combined.  

On such a Sunday we would likely perform one of our more challenging pieces, perhaps a classical work. These Sundays end up being a powerful and unique worship experience that offers a wonderful contrast and ‘punctuation’ to our standard fare of more progressive music and instrumentation at IBC.

Sunday service schedule: 9:00 a.m. & 10:45 a.m.

When we are singing on Sundays at IBC, we meet at these times:

8:00 a.m. - warm-up for 9:00 a.m. service
10:30 a.m. - be ready by 10:30 a.m. for 10:45 a.m. service
