Music

First Congregational Church of Des Plaines is a place where music has been a vibrant part of nearly 150 years of praise and worship.

 Through its history, we have seen musicians of all types performing solo works, trios and large ensembles of instrumentalists.  Voices are heard weekly, not only in the congregation singing traditional hymns but also more contemporary works.

Chancel Choir

​The Chancel Choir performs on most Sundays from September through the end of June.  Often gracing everyone with a concert or a cantata among other works.  ​

Bell Choir

The Bell Choir is also heard at least once a month during this same season and gives a spring concert every year.

Organ

​ The church has a pipe organ that brings a touch of old-style church music sound that is always welcomed by young and old. ​
