A cherished holiday tradition returns as the Eugene Symphony Chorus takes center stage in Handel’s Messiah, presented in the composer’s original orchestration. Radiant and rhythmically alive, the score allows chorus and orchestra to shine in music that has united audiences for generations. From moments of quiet reverence to the triumphant “Hallelujah” Chorus, this performance celebrates the grandeur and shared joy of one of the most enduring choral masterworks.
