For American people of color, racism is a major source of stress that takes a toll on both physical and mental health. This includes not only the stress of racist interpersonal encounters, but also the impact of structural and institutional racism on everyday life, which often occurs in ways that are invisible. Join us as we examine some of the effects of racism on well-being among Black and Indigenous People of Color, as well as some of the work being done to combat the harm of racism in our communities.

Today’s Comfort at One presents the New York premiere of a new work Invisible Labor by renowned composer and NOVUS NY violist Jessica Meyer. Invisible Labor is a response to the NY Times February feature "The Primal Scream" about the hardships working mothers have faced this past year during the pandemic.

Today’s Comfort at One Pipes recital comes from our Time’s Arrow Festival: Susanna that focused on Trinity’s commitment to amplifying the voices of female artists across multiple mediums. This recital presents works by Rachel Laurin, Florence Price, Nadia Boulanger, and others.

We hope the sweet talented voices of the Trinity Youth Chorus bring you hope and light from the title song “No One is Alone” from their stunning virtual concert: “No One is Alone: Songs of Love and Compassion.”

Comfort at One presents the concert “Lagrime Mie” which explores the female perspective in composition, particularly the raw evocation of emotion heard in the music of the famous Baroque artist, Barbara Strozzi (1619-1677), who broke through gender barriers to become the most successful composer of secular vocal music in Venice in her time.
