A Message from the Director of Music:

Dear Music Lovers,

I am beyond excited to begin my tenure this program year (2024/2025) as the Director of Music here at All Saints' Episcopal Church!  A great deal of that excitement comes from the honor of continuing to grow a great legacy, as established by Directors of Music Emeriti Elizabeth and Raymond Chenault and my predecessor Dr. Kirk Rich. With the help of All Saints' landmark Buzard pipe organ, these fine artistic directors have brought countless beautiful performances to our block in Midtown Atlanta and well beyond.
