20th Annual Messiah Sing-along

KPW — Sun, 28 Nov 2010 23:40:34 +0000

On Sunday, December 12, 2010, we’ll observe our Advent tradition for the 20th time! Choir and soloists from St. Peter’s will be joined by a chamber orchestra conducted by Don Witman. We’ll sing Part I of Handel’s Messiah, capped off by a rousing rendition of the Hallelujah Chorus.

Dress is casual, and the event is family-friendly. Older children enjoy being part of the music-making, and the nursery is open for young ones. Bring a score or borrow one at the door, and plan to stay for the reception.
