Saint Thomas Church Fifth Avenue welcomes rising star mezzo-soprano Sarah Rose Taylor who joins the Saint Thomas Choir of Men and Boys and New York Baroque Incorporated in a program of heroic music by Handel and Purcell centered around the four Coronation Anthems. With music defining 17th and 18th century England, this program celebrates the St. George’s Society of New York’s English heritage and longstanding partnership with Saint Thomas Church.
