Handel's Messiah, Parts II and III

March 15, 2008– 7:30 pm
Pre-concert Lecture – 7:00 pm
Lourdes Chapel, Assisi Heights


Choral Arts Ensemble, performing with a professional chamber orchestra and vocal soloists, presents parts II and III of Handel’s beloved masterpiece Messiah in the gorgeous setting of Lourdes Chapel. These two parts make up the Lenten and Easter portions of the piece and include the marvelously dramatic choruses Surely, He hath borne our griefs, Lift up your heads, and Behold the Lamb of God, as well as the treasured Hallelujah Chorus and Worthy is the Lamb. To hear Messiah with the smaller forces that Handel had in mind when he wrote it is an ear-opening experience, and one that will undoubtedly rank high on your concert-going list this season!
