Trinity’s holiday extravaganza of carols and other festive works features the combined power of all Trinity’s vocal groups — Trinity Choir, Trinity Youth Chorus, St. Paul’s Chapel Choir, and Trinity’s Downtown Voices — in addition to NOVUS brass and percussion, The Choirs of the Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC), and, of course, Trinity’s congregation.

Annual spring concert featuring the St. Paul’s Choir with Orchestra. In celebration of its 200th anniversary, this year we conclude our season with Ludwig van Beethoven’s late masterwork - the epic “Missa Solemnis.”

Join us for the New York premiere of Scott Ordway’s critically acclaimed The End of Rain. A deeply personal response to the California wildfires of the last five years, Ordway’s symphony takes us on a multimedia journey, blending photography and video with choral music, and a text crowdsourced from the people closest to the heart of this environmental maelstrom. With its ultimate message of hope and renewal, it is the vibrant centerpiece of this Earth Month concert which also includes Alberto Grau’s rhythmic, boisterous Kasar mie la gaji (“The Earth is Tired”) and John Luther Adams’s hushed and haunting “Night Peace.”

“Things will grow back”!
