One of The Crossing's co-founders, Jeff Dinsmore, died suddenly on April 14, 2014 at age 42.

The Crossing, one of America’s foremost contemporary-music choirs, has endured an eventful past 12 months. As WRTI’s Jim Cotter reports, the group has lived through the tragedy of the sudden passing of its co-founder Jeffrey Dinsmore on the stage of Disney Hall while just months later they received rave reviews for performances at the Kennedy Center and Lincoln Center.
