The Choir of All Saints' Episcopal Church
The All Saints' Choir has a long tradition of musical excellence. The choir, comprised of professional and volunteer members, sings two Sunday services as well as Festival Services. Special choral music is often performed with orchestral accompaniment for All Saints' Sunday, Christmas, Easter, Pentecost, and concerts. The choir has made several recordings, of which the two latest, produced by Towerhill Records, include one of Christmas music A Christmas Alleluia and the other, traditional Spirituals The Promised Land. The choir has been featured at Washington National Cathedral, Carnegie Hall, the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, and conventions of the American Guild of Organists, the Association of Anglican Musicians, and the Southeastern Conference of the American Choral Directors' Association. Choral commissions and premiers include works by Gerald Near, Bruce Neswick, Stephen Paulus, David Ashley White, Victor Johnson, Raymond Chenault, Alan Gibbs, and David Briggs.
Derrick Henry, music critic for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, wrote: "Chenault and his 45-voice mixed choir furnished uniformly excellent performances, beautiful in tone, secure in technique, sensitively balanced and vividly communicative."
