Special Music Committee
(VIA ZOOM)
The Special Music Committee consists of Emerson members and friends who are instrumentalists or vocalists and who provide the “Special Music” for worship services on Sundays when the Emerson Choir is not singing. The participants vary, based on the need for music and availability of musicians. Rehearsals are either in the Emerson Sanctuary or at the home of one of the musicians.
Contact: Mia Forbes (please see the directory for contact information).
