Parish Choir

St. Paul’s Choir is the principle parish choir that sings for the 10:30 a.m. Choral Eucharist on Sunday mornings as well as monthly Evensong, Lessons & Carols, and other special services during the liturgical year. The choir has made two international tours with residencies at Gloucester and Canterbury Cathedrals and have produced the recording Love Bade Me Welcome on the Zarex-Pro Organo label. The choir’s repertoire is drawn from the great and diverse historical repertoire of the Church with a focus on music of the Anglican tradition. The approximately 35 members of this choir are amateur and professional musicians from Greenville and the surrounding areas as well as students at East Carolina University.

    David hails from the United Kingdom, where he read Law at the University of Oxford while serving as the Organ Scholar at St. John’s College. His passion for music led him across the Atlantic to the Eastman School of Music, where he obtained his Master’s and Doctoral degrees. Alongside a career as performer and recording artist, David is a devoted church musician. He has a deep sensibility for the liturgy and is committed to the role of music in enhancing its beauty, and helping direct our prayers and praise to God.

David moved to Greenville from Rochester, NY, with his two springer spaniels, Lucy and Wilbur. He was particularly delighted to leave his snowblower in the garage for the new owners to enjoy, and intends to devote a considerable amount of his free time to offshore- and surf fishing. He also hopes to renew his scuba certification, following a necessary hiatus in upstate New York.
