Today's Comfort at One features a Pipes at One recital by Trinity's Associate Organist, Janet Yieh, and cellist Benjamin Larsen. This performance includes works by J.S. Bach, Antonio Vivaldi, Josef Rheinberger, Camille Saint-Saëns, and Robert A. Hobby.
Featuring The Choir of Trinity Wall Street, today’s Comfort at One brings a survey of spirituals curated and directed by Stanley Thurston as a part of our By the Waters of Babylon Festival that honored the range of Black music in America and its inextinguishable power to transcend and transform.
The score for Jason Treuting's extremes leaves a lot up to the performers—it calls for a high sound, a low sound, a sound that keeps a steady pulse, and some kind of pitched instrument. Check out our most popular video from 2020: an amazing virtual performance from our principal percussionists in NOVUS NY—Sandbox Percussion.
