Choir
The St. Pauls Tamil Church choir celebrates a long tradition of praising our creator through choral music. Started as a small group of keen amateurs bound by a common love for church music, a four-part choir was formally created in 1984 with Mr. D. Selwyn Gnanaraj taking the lead as choir master and Ms. Shantha Thomas becoming the organist.
In 1985, the choir performed at the first choir Sunday, an annual tradition that continues till today. Apart from this the choir also performs special numbers during the Christmas Carol service, the Easter service and on other special occasions.
Through the years the choir was blessed to have been led by talented choir masters and organists like Mr. Tamil Selvan, Mr. Joyson, Mr. Solomon Samuel, Mr. Asher. We are also grateful to God for all our past Choir members whose contribution to the choir will always be treasured.
At present the choir is perfect blend of enthusiastic youngsters and well experienced seniors bound by common purpose to worship God through Music.
