Trinity Church Announces 2024 Holiday Concerts

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - November 21, 2024 - Trinity Church has announced its 2024 holiday programming, which will kick off with the church's beloved production of Handel's Messiah, featuring Trinity Choir and Trinity Baroque Orchestra, with Jane Glover as guest conductor on December 11, 12, and 13. Trinity Church has a long-standing history of hosting Messiah, which includes one of the oratorio’s first North American performances, in 1770. It has become a beloved New York holiday tradition, which The New York Times called "the gold standard... transcendent and awe-inspiring.”

On December 20, Trinity Youth Chorus will celebrate its 20th year with the performance of Benjamin Britten's A Ceremony of Carols, featuring past and present members of the choir led by conductors Peyton Marion and Melissa Attebury. The piece famously juxtaposes ancient and modern influences and is another one of Trinity’s most popular holiday offerings.

Trinity's holiday season will conclude on December 21 with Sing Choir of Angels: Holiday Sing-Along, an extravaganza of carols and other festive works featuring the combined power of all Trinity’s vocal groups — Trinity Choir, Trinity Youth Chorus, St. Paul’s Chapel Choir, and 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.
