Music Ministries
We enjoy and create music in many ways. Adults can join the UU Singers and/or the Bell Ave. Ringers. Our Sunday services also feature local musicians as part of our Special Music program. You might hear a woodwind group, a folk singer, or some swinging jazz. We enjoy bringing the diversity of music in Des Moines to our church.
If you have questions about our choir programs, contact Director of Music Karen Kraemer (she/her/hers) at choir@ucdsm.org with questions.
We’re also proud to host the Progressive Voices Concerts, which bring musicians from around the country to our church to share their unique talents with a Des Moines audience. Since 2010, this music series has promoted compassion for, and celebration of, the universal human condition in all its forms and variations. Contact coordinator Doug Aupperle at concerts@ucdsm.org
