Music

Music has always been a very integral part of worship at Sixth Avenue. Our organ is a two-manual, 10-rank Reuter Pipe Organ. It is the 342nd organ built by the Reuter Organ Company of Lawrence Kansas; it was installed in our church in 1929. There are only four older Reuter Pipe Organs in Colorado. The piano in our sanctuary is a 6 1/2-foot Baldwin Grand Piano.

These instruments are played during our Sunday morning worship by Jim Hill. Jim is originally from the Red River Valley of North Dakota. Educated at the University of North Dakota, he spent many years working for the Colorado State Legislature. Also trained in music ministry, he is organist at several Denver churches as well as Evans Memorial Chapel, University of Denver. One of his hobbies is ringing bells. In 2017, he qualified as an Associate Carillonneur by the Guild of Carillonneurs in North America.

Our music program is led by Kyle Bradley.

Sixth Avenue United Church has been home to many musical performances over the years and is used by several private and college music teachers for student recitals and master classes. The acoustics in the sanctuary are second to none in the Denver area for individual and small ensemble performances. For information about use of the sanctuary (or any of our other facilities) and rental fees, please contact our office manager.
