Music Program

St. Mark's is known for its appreciation of many different styles of music: traditional, gospel, contemporary and everything in between. Music is thoughtfully and comprehensively woven into the texture of worship and parish life at St. Mark's.

Service music and other elements of the liturgy adapt to the season of the Church Year, offering variety and interest. In addition to the Hymnal, 1982, St. Mark's uses Lift Every Voice and Sing, Wonder, Love and Praise, Voices Found and the supplemental music in Enriching our Music.

At Christmas, Easter, and at other times of the year, the music program incorporates instrumental musicians, further enriching the worship experience.

Choir: Every week, each Thursday at 7:30, our St. Mark's Choir gets together to rehearse and praise. Our doors are open, our hearts are open, our souls are open. Shy or can't sing? Play an instrument, accompany, solo or in the last row - let His glory fill the sky! Speak with Music Director Eugene Sirotkine and reveal your gifts - call (917)-359-5906 or email music@stmarksteaneck.org. We also need trumpeters, clarinetists, percussionists and keyboardists! (Trombone will do too!)

Choristers: Choristers are singing each Thursday at 4:15 pm for a half hour. Give your children the gift of music. Eugene invites all parents to contact him about children's participation in the Choristers or in learning music privately. Call (917)-359-5906 or email music@stmarksteaneck.org for more information.

Concerts: Our building is an excellent concert setting. Members of St. Mark's and members of the area's rich performing arts community have performed in recent concerts. See our Concerts page for complete details about our 2011-2012 season.

Our monthly Lion's Den Coffee House and Open Mic is another venue for musical expression at St. Mark's.
