Premiered by the Grammy-nominated Choir of Trinity Wall Street and written in collaboration with noted American poet Victoria Chang, Agnus Dei is an a cappella movement from Mass, commissioned as part of Trinity Church’s long-term project Mass Reimaginings, a series celebrating the 45th Anniversary of the Bernstein Mass, as well as Bernstein’s 100th birthday, with five 21st-century takes on the traditional mass.
Learn more about the complete Mass, or for more about the work’s creation, watch the pre-concert discussion about the work with Newman, Chang, and Trinity Wall Street’s Director of Music and the Arts Julian Wachner.
