Our Music & Worship

AUMC has long been a leader in the church music community in Orange County. With a beautiful pipe organ, a 9 foot concert grand, 7 foot grand, and a 6 foot grand readily available, not to mention excellent acoustics, the facilities are excellent for making music.


We aim to employ a variety of musical forms and expressions from both the past and the present. We incorporate the organ, piano, guitar, bells, and more to create a meaningful worship experience.
