La Jolla United Methodist Church (LJUMC) welcomes Dr. Myron Tweed as the new director of music. Dr. Tweed is well known in the religious music community for his 27-year leadership as minister of music at First Presbyterian Church, as well as his 27-year association with Point Loma Nazarene University on the music faculty. He is also currently the director of the Cabrillo Singers, a community chorale that he founded in 2007. Dr. Tweed grew up on a farm near the foothills of the Rockies in Alberta, Canada. He attended Mountain View Bible College, Cascade College in Portland and the University of Southern California, where he earned his D.M.A. in church music. He brings a vast wealth of knowledge and ability to LJUMC, which enhances the quality of the music and performances in a church already acclaimed for its wonderful music program. The first major work he directed at LJUMC was Mike Hayes’ Te Deum with full chamber orchestra and accompaniment by Dr. Alison Luedecke on the organ. We are glad Dr. Tweed decided to come out of retirement and once again share his vast talent, love of music and excellent direction with those of us at La Jolla United Methodist Church and the community at large. La Jolla United Methodist Church is located at 6063 La Jolla Blvd. For information, call (858) 454-7108.
