Messiah 2012 - A Great Experience

Messiah 2012
Our recent performance of Handel's Messiah was a great experience for all involved.  We enjoyed our collaboration with the Evanston Civic Orchestra, the soloists were wonderful, and the audience was very appreciative. 

Thanks to Allen for taking photos and video.

Messiah Performance This Sunday, Dec. 16th

Wow!  This fall has gone by so fast.  The Chorus has had a great time rehearsing Messiah with Ryan North, and we're looking forward to our performance this Sunday.
 
G.F. Handel's Messiah
Sunday, Dec. 16th
6:00 p.m.
Davis Middle School
Free admission
Refreshments will be served following the program


It's a real treat for a chorus to sing accompanied by an orchestra, and we're excited to be working with the Evanston Civic Orchestra for this program.  We had our first combined rehearsal with them last week, and they are sounding great!

The chorus will sing several familiar songs, such as "And the Glory of the Lord" and "Hallelujah."  In addition, several soloists are lined up to perform:  Eric P., Todd B., April M., Clarissa C., Rebekah M., Bethany L., Jessica S., Crystal R. and Jonathan L.  The program will last a little over an hour.

If you aren't performing with us on Sunday, we hope you'll come listen and be inspired by the music and the message.
