The Choir of Trinity Wall Street holds a distinguished place in the vibrant musical landscape of New York City, internationally recognized for its groundbreaking and historically-informed performances of both classical and contemporary music. A cornerstone of musical life at Trinity Church Wall Street, the ensemble operates under the direction of the dynamic leader, Julian Wachner, and is composed of both a professional core ensemble and a larger corps of associated artists. Their music spans a diverse range from early Renaissance to modern, and they often collaborate with the Trinity Baroque Orchestra.

Celebrated for their rich interpretation and versatile musicianship, the choir maintains a balance by honoring timeless works of the past while also championing new and innovative compositions. Their discography reveals a commitment to the works of contemporary composers such as Ellen Reid, whose operatic work 'p r i s m' has garnered critical acclaim, or Julia Wolfe and her evocative exploration of Pennsylvania coal-mining life with 'Anthracite Fields.' The Choir's passion for modern choral literature sits comfortably alongside their celebrated performances of pieces by classical composers, including a compelling rendition of Philip Glass's "Symphony No. 5," showcasing their adaptability and breadth of range. The Choir of Trinity Wall Street truly embodies the vibrancy of the ever-evolving choral scene, serving not only its parish but the larger cultural tapestry of the United States and beyond.
