Our music library has a new home.

We’ve moved our music library from its old home at Ascension Lutheran Church in Paradise Valley to the brand-new LifeStorage center at Gilbert Crossing.

With your help, we can keep it thriving.

Maintaining our extensive library of over 15,000 copies of over 400 great choral works isn’t easy.  Our Music Librarian Cheryl Burton works tirelessly to keep the library in shape and to provide scores to all choristers.  But storage doesn’t come cheap!  We’re asking for $2,500 in donations between now and June 2025 to keep the library in top condition.

An anonymous donor will match up to $500 in donations to the Music Library Fund made between now and August 31.
