Our organist, Matthew Cron, has been with us since 1989. He has studied and played the organ for many years and in May, 2004, completed his doctorate in musicology from Brandeis University. Matt is a dedicated and inspired musician who enriches our music program with his thoughtful choice and excellent playing of organ and piano music and his skilled accompaniment of the choir, of instrumental music and congregational singing.

After a break of eight years (while she received her MD and completed her residency in Pediatrics and adult Internal Medicine), Anne Weaver is back as our Senior Choir Director at Immanuel.

Anne holds a masters degree in music from the University of Massachusetts and an MD from the UMass School of Medicine. Anne directed the choir from 1969-1994 and built the music program to a high level prior to her beginning medical school in 1994. She is very glad to be back working with this wonderful group of musicians and inspiring people. Anne has recently opened Amherst Family Practice.

We are extremely grateful for the very talented people who served as Choir Director during the years of Anne's absense: James Carpenter, Christopher Aspaas, Thomas Kim, Gregory Brown, and Mary Carlson.

Our choir is a completely volunteer group consisting of between 16 and 24 singers. All who are interested in making music with us are cordially invited to join with the choirs (Senior or Junior) of Immanuel. We also seek instrumentalists who can further enrich the quality of our worship services and our special concerts and other events.
