INSTRUMENT REPAIR

We use Big Note Music for on site repair of many of our musical instruments.  If you have an instrument that needs repair as the school year begins, this may be a great option for you.  The process works with you filling out an online form, pre-paying for the repair, and then they come for a scheduled repair session right on our Trinity campus.  Your student wouldn’t be away from their instrument except when it’s on the repair table.  This convenient option has worked for us for a few years now.  Simply fill out the online form and let us know that a repair has been scheduled.

A NOTE FROM THE DIRECTOR

Music brings out a multitude of emotions.  Throughout our concert season we pray you will experience joy, wonder, peace, maybe some dissonance, and resolution by the end of each song.  Throughout each grade and each performance, we strive to show the progression of the musician, from our little Lions as beginner instrumentalists and vocalists, to the older grades and several years of experience under our belts.  Through it all, we hope to show the passion of our students for the Arts as this comes alive in each of our programs.

Christmas brings out a multitude of emotions as well.  Some of these are exactly the same: joy, wonder, peace, maybe some dissonance, and hopefully resolution as we navigate the season together.  We are a family at Trinity, and we love to take this journey with each of your students.  And also with you, our parents and faculty!  It is such an honor for us to have a like-minded faith as we do this.  It is a blessing to have freedom to proclaim Christ.  And it is amazing to see God at work openly in each of your students.  We are praying for each of you, for our Trinity community, that we will experience God’s Presence in amazing ways this holiday season, and be a vessel to show His love to a hurting world in the process.  May God bless you richly!  Emmanuel, God is with us!!

NEW INSTRUCTORS

We would like to welcome two new instructors to our staff.  We are so excited to introduce:

Nien-hwa Chin - Cello, Piano - nzc102@gmail.com 

Nien-hwa Chin is a concert cellist and a pianist.  She holds bachelor’s degrees in piano and cello performances from Taiwan and graduate degrees in cello performance and music education from Penn State.  She was under the tutelage of Professors Kim Cook, Martha Gerschefski, and Eugene Osadchy.  She also took master classes with Yo-Yo Ma, David Finckel, Anne Williams and Oxana Yablonskaya. 

In addition to constant performances in both solo and ensemble settings, Ms. Chin has taught in K-12 public/private schools, universities and her own music studio.  She also served as the music director of contemporary services at US Air Force chapel in Tokyo while stationed in Japan. 

Ms. Chin and her family relocated back to Peachtree City in the summer of 2024 after 10 years of living overseas.  She enjoys traveling, reading, dancing and cooking with her two teenage children, Joshua and Elspeth. 

Frank van der Merwe - Guitar, Drum Set, Bass Guitar, Rock Vocals - fvdm92@gmail.com

Frank van der Merwe grew up in a family that loved music, so he was, of course, drawn to the same love at an early age.  He started his musical journey by learning a chord on his father’s guitar and after that he couldn’t put it down!

Growing up and living in Australia, Frank moved to the US in 2018.  He has played many different styles and experienced countless venues and genres.  He has played on worship teams, with road bands, and in recording studios.  When Frank isn’t teaching, he is recording and producing his own music in his home studio.

Frank has always found himself surrounded by music whether it’s performing, writing, producing, or teaching.  He is excited to make a difference by sharing his passion with students in our community.  

“Music is a gift from God.  There are songs of praise being sung right this moment!” 

All Things Theatre

ONE ACT

CONGRATS TO THE CAST AND CREW OF THE LION, THE WITCH, and THE WARDROBE for a great day at State Competition on Saturday, Nov. 16th!

Stephen Nussbaum (Mr. Beaver) was named All Star Cast member alongside Riley Cook, Isabelle Johnson, and MJ Poling (The White Witch). We also had two All Star Crew members, CHLOE COOK, our Stage Manager and TJ Timpson on lights!

INSTRUMENT REPAIR

We use Big Note Music for on site repair of many of our musical instruments.  If you have an instrument that needs repair as the school year begins, this may be a great option for you.  The process works with you filling out an online form, pre-paying for the repair, and then they come for a scheduled repair session right on our Trinity campus.  Your student wouldn’t be away from their instrument except when it’s on the repair table.  This convenient option has worked for us for a few years now.  Simply fill out the online form and let us know that a repair has been scheduled.

Tim Hurt - Performing Arts Director

 

“Bearing the image of the Creator as we cultivate creativity.”

A NOTE FROM THE DIRECTOR

Music brings out a multitude of emotions.  Throughout our concert season we pray you will experience joy, wonder, peace, maybe some dissonance, and resolution by the end of each song.  Throughout each grade and each performance, we strive to show the progression of the musician, from our little Lions as beginner instrumentalists and vocalists, to the older grades and several years of experience under our belts.  Through it all, we hope to show the passion of our students for the Arts as this comes alive in each of our programs.

Christmas brings out a multitude of emotions as well.  Some of these are exactly the same: joy, wonder, peace, maybe some dissonance, and hopefully resolution as we navigate the season together.  We are a family at Trinity, and we love to take this journey with each of your students.  And also with you, our parents and faculty!  It is such an honor for us to have a like-minded faith as we do this.  It is a blessing to have freedom to proclaim Christ.  And it is amazing to see God at work openly in each of your students.  We are praying for each of you, for our Trinity community, that we will experience God’s Presence in amazing ways this holiday season, and be a vessel to show His love to a hurting world in the process.  May God bless you richly!  Emmanuel, God is with us!!

NEW JAZZ COMBO . . . COMING SOON

ATTENTION HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS . . .

We will be starting a jazz combo next semester, and you’re invited!  This is for anyone interested in studying jazz at an entry level.  This is the first time we will have this group offered at TCS, and we are so excited!  Here are the details:

Who: High School students with an interest in learning about jazz

Rehearsals: Thursdays weekly from 3:30-5pm

Location: Band Room

Cost: $75 per student (covers two books for each student and instructor fees)

Leaders: Jason Christian and Tim Hurt

ARTS ACADEMY UPDATES

OPEN POSITION: PIANO

We are growing in the Arts Academy.  And with growth comes new instructors.  This is so exciting!  We are in search of a piano instructor who can teach during the school day several days each week.  This person will need a solid Christian testimony and skills to teach piano methods through a classical approach.  Interested candidates should reach out to Tim Hurt at tim.hurt@tcslions.org for next steps.  Thanks for helping us spread the word here.

NEW INSTRUCTORS

We would like to welcome two new instructors to our staff.  We are so excited to introduce:

Nien-hwa Chin - Cello, Piano - nzc102@gmail.com 

Nien-hwa Chin is a concert cellist and a pianist.  She holds bachelor’s degrees in piano and cello performances from Taiwan and graduate degrees in cello performance and music education from Penn State.  She was under the tutelage of Professors Kim Cook, Martha Gerschefski, and Eugene Osadchy.  She also took master classes with Yo-Yo Ma, David Finckel, Anne Williams and Oxana Yablonskaya. 

In addition to constant performances in both solo and ensemble settings, Ms. Chin has taught in K-12 public/private schools, universities and her own music studio.  She also served as the music director of contemporary services at US Air Force chapel in Tokyo while stationed in Japan. 

Ms. Chin and her family relocated back to Peachtree City in the summer of 2024 after 10 years of living overseas.  She enjoys traveling, reading, dancing and cooking with her two teenage children, Joshua and Elspeth. 

Frank van der Merwe - Guitar, Drum Set, Bass Guitar, Rock Vocals - fvdm92@gmail.com

Frank van der Merwe grew up in a family that loved music, so he was, of course, drawn to the same love at an early age.  He started his musical journey by learning a chord on his father’s guitar and after that he couldn’t put it down!

Growing up and living in Australia, Frank moved to the US in 2018.  He has played many different styles and experienced countless venues and genres.  He has played on worship teams, with road bands, and in recording studios.  When Frank isn’t teaching, he is recording and producing his own music in his home studio.

Frank has always found himself surrounded by music whether it’s performing, writing, producing, or teaching.  He is excited to make a difference by sharing his passion with students in our community.  

“Music is a gift from God.  There are songs of praise being sung right this moment!”

High School One Act

THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE

This weekend, the TCS Roaring Dramatics performed their one-act production of the traditional C. S. Lewis story The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe. The show proved to be a success with audiences enjoying the story of the four Pevensie children who find themselves in the land of Narnia and meet whimsical characters including the Beaver family, Mr. Tumnus, and the powerful Aslan. The Roaring Dramatics shared with Trinity the wonderful power and divine love of our God, and audiences took home a story with a truly inspiring message. Next week, the cast and crew will go to perform at the Regional One Act Competition at Upson Lee High School. They will compete with eight other schools with this magical tale, spreading the power of God to other high schools through the art of theater!

MARCHING LIONS

As the weeks have passed since our first competition I am still in awe of what the Lord has done in this season. In true Jesus fashion, He does exceedingly and abundantly more than we could ever imagine. 

Sometimes I stand back and look at the band kids from 5th-12th grade and think “I pray they truly know how much Jesus loves them.” I try to keep myself in a heart posture of “Lord let me see them how YOU see them and help me to teach them”

Please keep praying for our band program and that the Lord will continue to show us how to set things in motion for each next season.  - Mrs. Palmer

Important Upcoming Marching Lions Dates

As we get closer to the end of our season we will dial back our rehearsals. Please be sure to check our schedule regularly.

A Note from the Director

We are rolling!  We are rehearsing!!  And we are already performing!!!  Classes have started, and we could not be more excited!!!  Theatrically, vocally, instrumentally, and technically, students are already showing their potential, and the future is bright at TCS!!!  As we continue throughout these first few weeks, please feel free to reach out to any of our Performing Arts staff.  We are glad to help, as we want to cultivate a creative space for each of our students to thrive in.  

Come check out our Marching Lions this Friday at our first football game as we present The Greatest Showman and cheer our Lions on to victory.  Respond to one of the many theatrical opportunities launched at our recent interest meeting to let your student take the stage.  And celebrate our students who just came back from Columbus, Ohio and the National Fine Arts Festival.  These are just a few highlights early in the year.  There is so much to celebrate, and so many exciting adventures in store.

Parents, thank you already for your amazing support for the Arts.  We feel it, and we appreciate it!!  Please let us know if you would like to jump in and help, we love involving the whole family.  Here’s to an amazing year ahead, and realizing God’s full potential in and through all of us!!

For the Fall semester, Ms. Michelina Ryan will be leading our students in these sessions, with the goal of building to more regular opportunities in the Spring semester and beyond.  Michelina is a student at Anderson University in South Carolina studying dance.  She has worked with our students in a number of ways already including dance groups, theatre, workshops, and more.  We are so excited to have her in leadership here, as she has so much to offer both artistically and spiritually to our students.
