                 ​          A Note (!) from our Choir Director

My dream is to grow and evolve us into a group who loves to make more and MORE joyful noise, and to do so wholeheartedly, and to have some fun in the process!!  Can you carry a tune? Do you want to come carry a tune with us? Please do! Contact me if you’re interested,  and we can have a chat about what you can expect and about our schedule. I look forward to making some noise with you!  You may email me  here.

Since 1990, we have been blessed with the presence most Sundays of our wildly talented musical director  Scott DeTurk, pianist and composer. Scott provides the music for our 10:00 am service, accompanying lively congregational singing and/or playing reflective pieces which invite us into a deeper meditative mood. Go to academy-deturk.com  to learn about Scott's musical academy.

Scott also serves as accompanist and interim director for the CCC Choir, which meets for formal rehearsals on the last Wednesday of the month, and also at 9:15 on Sunday mornings. Choral selections favor spirited gospel and global music, but also include hymns and other inspirational music, both old and new, at the director's discretion.  All are welcome to sing with the choir by arriving at 9:15 and taking a place around the ​grand piano. 
​​
​Throughout the year we create special musical events such as the Valentine's concert, featuring invited musical guests. We also have an annual Christmas concert featuring our
choir and other wonderful singers ​ such as Jan Pedersen Schiff's Singers Marin. And Scott has created a fabulous jazz quartet called the ​Rock Hill Band who perform at CCC at least
once a year.​

​          which he performed at a worship service in January.

On January 21, 2018,  the day the congregation voted
to welcome David as its new minister,
 ​Tripp and Scott delighted everyone
with an impromptu rendition of "Feelin' Good."

 ​Our two virtuoso pianists Scott and Melba
delight the congregation with
a 4-handed rendition of "Canadian Capers."

On February 2nd, 2020, Tripp and Scott reprised "Feelin' Good"
in honor of the second anniversary of Rev. David's and Tripp's arrival among us.
