Today for Comfort at One, sing along from wherever you are with Trinity ensembles in this concert that has been a highlight of the holiday season. This Christmas extravaganza, the Community Carol Sing, features Downtown Voices, NOVUS NY, and the Trinity Youth Chorus.
Today, Comfort at One brings you Trinity ensembles, under the direction of Julian Wachner, performing parts one and three of Bach’s Christmas Oratorio.
Trinity’s Messiah is unique—presented in a sacred space, on historic instruments, with soloists chosen from the choir to best complement each aria, air, and recitative. Trinity presented one of the first performances in North America in 1770, and The Choir of Trinity Wall Street and Trinity Baroque Orchestra under the direction of Julian Wachner are widely regarded as some of the greatest interpreters of the work.
