The Choir s tremendous expressive and dynamic range and remarkable vocal discipline and finesse (The New York Times) is featured in the Sacred Music in a Sacred Space concert series ( now in its 22nd season. Each member is a soloist in his or her own right in a variety of genres including early music, opera, oratorio and contemporary repertoire. The core group of 18 members sings a demanding schedule of weekly parish worship services in a wide range of musical styles, with particular emphasis on new works, the sacred Renaissance repertoire and Gregorian chant. The Choir may be heard on recordings for the MSR Classics and AMDG labels. In March 2006, the Choir was invited as the headline chorus at the Southwestern American Choral Directors Association convention in St. Louis, Missouri. In April 2009, the Choir performed in the opening festival of radio station WNYC s new Jerome L. Greene Performance Space, on a concert bill with René Pape, John Zorn, Ute Lemper, and Nico Muhly.
