Abstract: In this paper, we explore natural connections among trigonometric Lie algebras, (general) affine Lie algebras, and vertex algebras. Among the main results, we obtain a realization of trigonometric Lie algebras as what were called the covariant algebras of the affine Lie algebra widehatmathcalA of Lie algebra mathcalA=frakglinftyoplusfrakglinfty with respect to certain automorphism groups. We then prove that restricted modules of level ell for trigonometric Lie algebras naturally correspond to equivariant quasi modules for the affine vertex algebras VwidehatmathcalA(ell,0) (or VwidehatmathcalA(2ell,0)). Furthermore, we determine irreducible modules and equivariant quasi modules for simple vertex algebra LwidehatmathcalA(ell,0) with ell a positive integer. In particular, we prove that every quasi-finite unitary highest weight (irreducible) module of level ell for type A trigonometric Lie algebra gives rise to an irreducible equivariant quasi LwidehatmathcalA(ell,0)-module.
