Paul, a long-time friend of Trafalgar, began leading our music program in 2010. He hails originally from Woodstock, Ontario where he was baptized Presbyterian and studied violin and trombone. Paul studied Mathematics at the University of Waterloo and sang in the chapel choir under Leonard Enns at Conrad Grebel College.
Paul leads our Junior and Senior choirs, exploring a wide variety of musical styles on a weekly basis. Paul also conducts a growing ensemble that includes not only piano and guitar but violin, clarinet, flute, trumpet, cello, french horn, trombone and percussion. He is always on the lookout for new singers and players.
Paul is passionate about encouraging people of all ages and skill levels to find joy in music and enabling them to share their musical gifts within the worshipping community. He lives in Oakville with his wife Sarah, their son Ben and their two daughters, Ella and Olive.
