“Burning and gladdening, vivid in both darkness and light,” Trinity’s Messiah is “the gold standard” (The New York Times).
Watch this “transcendent and awe-inspiring” performance featuring The Choir of Trinity Wall Street and Trinity Baroque Orchestra led by award-winning guest conductor Ryan James Brandau, recorded live in Trinity Church on December 15, 2023.
In a season full of Messiah concerts, Trinity’s is unique — distinctly modern yet authentically performed on period instruments in a sacred and acoustically rich space. A cherished holiday tradition that has captivated audiences since it was first presented by the church in 1770, this is the most historic Messiah in New York City.
It can be difficult to manage the activity and busyness of the holidays when you’re grieving. Mother Kristin Miles encourages us who are grieving at this time of year to be gentle with ourselves and let go of any expectations.
