Music Ministries
Our band and songsters (choir), as well as various vocal and instrumental soloists, provide music for worship each Sunday. They also participate in regular concerts. Our musicians are shown here at the US Marine Corps Memorial where they performed during their visit to Arlington, Virginia, in 2007.
Band
Bandmaster Greg Colley
The Yorkminster Citadel Senior Band provides music for worship and outreach ministry, and takes part in regular praise services. The band participates in concerts at Thanksgiving, Christmas, and at other times of the year. Its playing is enjoyed outside of Yorkminster at community events and churches. At Christmas the carol playing of musicians from Yorkminster Citadel Band delights the shoppers at Yorkdale Mall.
Songsters
Songster Leader Donna Colley
In addition to their weekly contribution to worship services the Songsters are an integral part of the ministry. They bring musical blessings to the Toronto Grace Hospital and the Meighen Retirement Residence each month, and over the Christmas season they sing at the Yorkminster Community Christmas Concert and to shoppers and employees in Yorkdale Mall at The Salvation Army's Christmas Kettles. Their most recent CD (The Lord Is My Light) has been a source of blessing to many. (
