New York Times Features our Soprano
Bora at The Manton Memorial Organ
The New York Times featured our own soprano Bora Yoon in the Metro section on April 18, 2014. The article notes “Bora Yoon writes and performs music that combines ancient and modern elements, including 12th-century liturgical chants and abstract electronic ‘sound architecture’.”

The article also mentions she sings at our church and has a new album, Sunken Cathedral, which “explores the structural parallels between the vaulted construction of a church and its organ and that of a human chest, with both producing sound by moving air through pipes.” Bora will perform much of that album at the Asia Society at 8pm this Wednesday, April 23rd. We are so blessed to know Bora as our singer and Vestry member at Ascension. Bora and Mtr Shelley Here is a link to the article in the New York Times.
