Coro Allegro Boston Presents Andrew Yee's Trans Requiem

  • Church of the Covenant 67 Newbury Street Boston, Massachusetts, 02116 United States (map)

Coro Allegro, Boston's LGBTQ+ and allied classical chorus, presents the Boston premiere of Andrew Yee’s Trans Requiem on Sunday, November 22, 2026, at 3 PM at the Church of the Covenant.

The concert features two-time GRAMMY Award-winning cellist and composer Andrew Yee, soprano Breanna Sinclairé, and tenor Sam Crosby-Schmidt. Written for trans voices, mixed chorus, and string orchestra, this moving work celebrates the beauty, resilience, and diversity of the trans experience.

Commissioned and premiered in 2025 by Trinity Church in New York City, Trans Requiem was described by Trinity Director of Music Melissa Baker as “a space to mourn the lost, honor survival, and imagine a future where trans lives are honored and cherished.”

The program also features Ola Gjeilo’s gorgeous Sunrise Mass and the presentation of Coro Allegro’s Pinkham Award to The Theater Offensive Executive Director and Boston Trans Day of Remembrance vigil co-chair Giselle Byrd.
