ABOUT THE EVENT
The critically acclaimed Choir of St Thomas Church performs in the Berliner Dom, with organist Frederik Teadoro and organist/ conductor John Scott.
The Berliner Dom (Berlin Cathedral) is located on the historic 'Museum Island' and was rebuilt in 1905. It has a richly decorated interior and the magnificent Sauer organ, which was built at the same time as the cathedral. Today, the Sauer organ is the largest organ of the "late Romantic" period.
Experience classical music in the incomparable atmosphere of one of Europe's most impressive basilica cathedrals.

Artists of Choir of St Thomas Church
Saint Thomas Choir
, ChoirThe Saint Thomas Choir of Men and Boys is the leading ensemble in the Anglican choral tradition in the United States. Directed since 2004 by John Scott, formerly Organist and Director of Music at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, the choir performs regularly with period instrument ensembles, Concert Royal and Sinfonia New York, or with the Orchestra of St. Luke’s as part of its own concert series. Its primary raison d’être, however, is to provide music for five choral services each week.
Supplementing its choral services and concert series over the past three decades, the choir has toured throughout the United States and Europe with performances at Westminster Abbey and St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, Kings College, Cambridge, Windsor, Edinburgh, St. Albans and the Aldeburgh Festival. In 2004, the choir toured Italy, and performed for a Papal Mass at the Vatican. During 2007, the choir performed Bach’s Saint Matthew Passion for the opening concert of the Mexico Festival in Mexico City as well as at Saint Thomas Church. In April 2010, the choir performed in their second British Choirs Festival at Washington National Cathedral with the choirs of New College Oxford and Washington National Cathedral.
The Men of the Saint Thomas Choir are professional singers; the Boy choristers attend Saint Thomas Choir School. Founded in 1919, it is the only church related boarding choir school in the United States, and one of only a few choir schools remaining in the world.

nominated International Performer of the Year by the New York Chapter of the American Guild of Organists.
