In a season full of Messiah concerts, Trinity’s is unique — performed in a sacred space, on period instruments, with soloists from the choir chosen to best complement each aria and recitative. Trinity and Messiah have a long history: Trinity presented one of the first performances in North America in 1770, and Trinity’s ensembles are widely regarded as some of the greatest interpreters of the work. This year’s performance is led by the versatile and award-winning artistic director Dr. Ryan James Brandau, a choral expert with a reputation for incisive interpretations and dynamic, uplifting performances. Don’t miss this "transcendent and awe-inspiring” (The New York Times) performance featuring The Choir of Trinity Wall Street and Trinity Baroque Orchestra.
Running time: 3 hours with one 20-minute intermission.
