History of the Music Program at Saint Mark's Saint Mark’s respected music ministry was first developed during the forty-year tenure of Canon Precentor Emeritus Peter R. Hallock. During Dr. Hallock’s leadership from 1951 to 1991, St. Mark’s established a national reputation in music, particularly through the Compline Choir, the installation of the Flentrop organ in 1965, and through Dr. Hallock’s compositions. This tradition was continued in 1992 with the appointment of J. Melvin Butler as Organist/Choirmaster. From 1996-2002, Dent Davidson served as Music Associate, and brought tremendous growth to the music ministry, particularly in the area of youth music. In 2001, Brian Fairbanks was appointed Associate for Youth Music, and now serves as Music Associate. During the past few years, additional choirs have been established at Saint Mark’s in addition to the Cathedral and Compline Choirs, further enhancing the musical and worship life of this lively community.
