to answer the question musicians are not choir members and are not part of the chior they both a two different groups that make up part of the music ministry. i dont know any church where the musicians exclusively only play when the choir sings

Hello everyone this is angiey and I don't think that musicians have to necessarily wear robes. But it does look nice to coordinate your clothes with the colors the choir is wearing. PEACE AND BLESSINGS!!!!!!!

This has become a big debate, should musicians where robes during service.

Some choirs say yes and some say no!

What do you think?



I just think that too much material hanging around the instruments could end up catastrophic mess.  It can be too restrictive and hinder the performance.  When a person is constantly moving, it creates heat, and a robe on top of that will have you passing out. But, I do think that musicians should be appropriately dressed for the occasion as well.  I just saw someone playing the piano at a wedding with some jeans and an almost white t-shirt on, so inappropriate.

I say no.

As long as the musicians have some sort of guidelines for dress it should be up to them as to what they wear.

I know at our church we have guidelines for ANYONE on the platform, not just musicians..and it works well.  We dont have robes for our choir because we believe that its unnecessary and kind of a waste of money when we only run 50-100 ppl... BUT even if we did, musicians would be exempt :D i would make sure of it... hah.

I playi so hard most times I'm sweating without a robe. I say no because I know it would restrict my playing; but if a leader directed me I would make do, and continue playing for the Lord!

I don't think musicians just have to wear robes during service, however, I do feel their clothing should represent the fact that they are ministering as well as the preacher.

Hello LMG, It has been a long time since I posted something. And that was only one time I think...lol
As to the Question " Should the Musicians where robes during service?" I do look at the musicians being apart of the music ministry, but carry a different role so to speak. Currently, our choir's do not wear robes, like the other bro said it is hot in flawda, so plan B is to wear other attire, may be light suit for the ladies and a leisure suit for the fellows, our kids, on the sunday they sing, we have dress down day, and they wear Jeans and a white tee, tucked in.....lol which makes it better for the youth to see we as adults are trying to meet them where they are. If there is a specific color it would be nice for the musicians to dress in that color. I Director of music at my church, but I am also the musician, look at it this way, if our choir wore robes, if I directed a song I would wear the robe, but as a musician, my position is different, I am not a choir member, An accomppianst (oops) or choir Director I will dress appropiately. There is more physical activity for a musician then a choir member and it reeks havoc. In all sincerity I would be open to discussion with the staff. If dress approiptiatly, should it matter, God looks at the heart. For those of youthat is in Ministry, follow God's order for your life and ministry.

We dont wear robes. We wear garments which is something like the priestly garments in Exodus.
