Music is a very important part of our worship! Weekly services are led by organist and choir master, Jonathan Moyer, on our beautiful mechanical-action organ built by Richard Howell. Music ensembles for all ages welcome new participants. If you have interests in music, dance, drama and all things artistic, there is an opportunity awaiting you at Epiphany!

The Adult Choir sings weekly at the Sunday 10:00am service from September to June and rehearses on Thursday evenings at 7:30pm. Each section of the choir (soprano, alto, tenor, bass) is led by a professional soloist. Volunteer singers from all levels of experience are encouraged to join. Special services throughout the year such as Christmas and Easter offer opportunities for those who cannot sing regularly with the choir.

The Handbell Choir performs on special occasions throughout the year and rehearses on Thursdays at 6:00pm. This is an all volunteer ensemble. An ability to read music is not required, just a willing and open mind to learn new things.

The Treble Choir is open to children and youth from ages 7 to 12. The choir follows the Royal School of Church Music curriculum and is an excellent place for participants to learn about singing, music reading and church traditions. The choir rehearses on Wednesdays from 6:00-7:00pm, and performs monthly from September to June. Singers who excel in the choir are supported to attend RSCM Summer Choral Workshops.

The Cherub Choir is open to children from ages 2 to 6. The choir rehearses on Wednesdays at 4:30 PM.

If you have an interest in joining one of our ensembles or learning more about the music at Epiphany, please contact the music director, Jonathan Moyer, at jonathanwmoyer@comcast.net or 443-804-31647.

The organ was dedicated October 1, 1989. Thomas Spacht served as the consultant. The casework is of Appalachian white oak, with key cheeks and lattices of pear; the draw knobs and sharps are of grenadilla. The wind pressure is 48mm (approximately 1 7/8"), regulated by a single-fold wedge bellows; wind trunks are of oak. The "well-temperament" is by Owen Jorgensen, based on Johann Phillip Bendeler (1654-1708) and Thomas Young (1773-1829). The Blockflöte 4' and the Bassflöte 8' are tapered.

In 2006 extensive repairs were done to the organ by Richard Howell. 15 notes of the façade principal 8' were replaced when it was found that the pipes were collapsing at the foot. Stinkens pipe manufacturers in Holland were employed to replace the pipes with a stronger alloy. The rollerboard was removed from the case along with the keyboards for adjustments. The keys were individually chamfered (or beveled), giving more ease to the performer. An octave of the trompete 8' was removed and given new brass tongues. The subbass 16' caps were releathered.

Jonathan William Moyer has been described by the Baltimore Sun as "ever-expressive" and a "superb organist." Sought after as a pianist, organist and conductor, his schedule is filled with collaborations with singers and instrumentalists. He is organist and choirmaster of Epiphany Episcopal Church in Timonium, MD, and is a coach-accompanist for the Baltimore School for the Arts and the Thomas Stewart and Evelyn Lear Emerging Singer Program of the Washington D.C. Wagner Society. He has performed throughout the Baltimore and Washington D.C. region as well as Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York City, England, Germany and Italy. He has performed with such local ensembles as Concert Artists of Baltimore, the Handel Choir of Baltimore, and the Masterworks Chorale and has appeared on the Music for the Great Hall Recital Series, Towson, MD, and Community Concerts at Second Presbyterian Church, Baltimore, MD. Upcoming recitals include performances in New Brunswick and Princeton, NJ, Greenville, SC, and New York City. In 2008 he plans to perform the complete organ works of Olivier Messiaen, celebrating the centenary of the composer's birth.

Mr. Moyer is completing a doctorate in organ as a student of Donald Sutherland at the Peabody Conservatory, where he completed both a graduate performance diploma in organ and a master's degree in piano as a student of Ann Schein. He has attended organ festivals in England, Germany and Switzerland, and has studied organ privately with Susan Landale in Paris. In 2005 he was one of four finalists in the St. Albans International Organ Competition. He and his wife, Kaori Hongo, organist and music director of First English Lutheran Church in Baltimore, reside in Windsor Mill, MD.
