Founded in the early 1970s as the successor to the American Cathedral Organists and Choirmasters Association, AAM's membership today embraces musicians, clergy, and supporters of music in Anglican liturgical life. Members work and worship in cathedrals, parishes and missions large and small, theological seminaries, and church-related schools.
They are organists, pianists, bishops, guitarists, presbyters and deacons, directors and trainers of choirs, teachers of music, and friends of Anglicanism's musical tradition and practice of sung prayer. The Association of Anglican Musicians is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization of musicians and clergy serving in the worshiping communities of the Episcopal Church and the larger Anglican tradition.
