Although the rains complicated our America 250 Festival of The Arts at our Old Swedes Historic Site in Wilmington earlier today, nothing could stop the show from moving forward. The show must go on! We simply moved all of the entertainment from our outdoor amphitheater to our indoor sanctuary that was built in 1690 and has the most glorious acoustics! Five and half hours of FREE non-stop live entertainment from a Colonial fife and drum corps, to Opera Delaware, to dramatic historical oratory of MLK, Jr,, to Pieces Of A Dream Dance Company to a seven-piece jazz band, it was an incredible afternoon of artistic excellence and a whole lotta fun for people of all ages, including audience participation! Keep your eyes posted for many more exciting events in the coming months at Old Swedes Historic Site!

ALTO/MEZZO STAFF SINGER OPENING beginning September at historic Trinity Episcopal Church in Wilmington, DE.

Compensation is $184 per week, plus additional compensation for special rehearsals, services, weddings and funerals. Trinity’s six paid singers are supplemented each Sunday by a highly skilled and dedicated corps of another 10 to 14 volunteer singers for a versatile ensemble of 16 to 20 singers. The 2026/2027 season runs from September 10 to May 23. Thursday evening rehearsals are at 7:00 pm and Sunday morning call is at 9:00 am for one Sunday worship service. Applicants MUST be available to sing all Christmas Eve and Easter Sunday services to apply. Trinity is easily accessible from I-95, located at the top of the ramp of Exit 7.

Staff Singers, who serve as both soloists and section leaders, must be excellent sight-readers and adept and comfortable singing in a wide variety of musical genres and styles in a fast-paced environment. Singers must also be punctual, reliable and willing to work in and foster a spirit of collegiality and collaboration. Our choir is extremely hard-working, dedicated and focused, but also loves to create great music while having lots of fun and enjoying our time together.

Trinity’s choir and congregation are a diverse, welcoming, inclusive, loving and compassionate group of individuals. Trinity Parish, which was founded in 1698, has a long history of musical excellence and two beautiful and historic sanctuaries that are home to two Austin pipe organs (a three-manual and a two-manual), five pianos (including a nine-foot Steinway in the main sanctuary), as well a large set of handbells and tower bells.
