Voices of Ascension returns with a season of classics, favorites, and hidden treasures. Suffused with the warm glow of hundreds of candles, Voices of Ascension opens with the beloved Candlelight Christmas Concerts featuring young artists, traditional carols, and classic holiday melodies. Next, VOA returns to the classical era with works by Mozart and Haydn, friends and iconic composers. Our 27th season also includes Bach’s St. John Passion and Music of the Sistine Chapel, punctuated with an exciting collaboration with CUNY Graduate Center in a performance of Enrique (Enric) Granados’ Song of the Stars. Subscriptions are on sale now. Get your Early Bird Level A subscriptions at $350 before June 30. Level B subscriptions are $175. Single tickets will go on sale September 15.

Parish News: September 13
On the 25th anniversary of September 11, Mother Liz invites us to remember those lost, the first responders’ sacrifice, and the courage and compassion that arose amid devastation. Ascension will be open for prayer and reflection from 8 am to 5 pm, with bells tolling at 8:46. She shares a prayer from Bishop Allen Shin, calling us to confront hatred, resist violence, and make peace.
