The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Celebrate the season with the glorious sounds of Messiah. Handel’s beloved oratorio comes to life once more, performed on exquisite period instruments just as it was meant to be heard. From the triumphant Hallelujah to the soaring arias and stirring choruses, this is Messiah in its full, breathtaking splendor.

Under the dynamic guest direction of Jos van Veldhoven, this year’s performance promises to be an unforgettable musical event. With world-class soloists and the vibrant debut of Portland Baroque Voices infusing every note with passion, power, and soul-stirring emotion, this Messiah will be a truly transcendent experience.
