NON-SUBSCRIPTION
The only piece of music from the baroque period performed every year since its creation, Handel’s Messiah was originally written for actors. Hence, we’ll capitalize on the drama, the transformation from dark to light, and the humanistic journey that is a triumph to complete, each and every time.

BaMM and Roots in the Sky team up with a period band and top-notch soloists from across the nation to present the region’s first period-instrument, highly crafted Handel’s Messiah.

Pre-concert talk with Dr. Lindsay Strand-Polyak.  (30 minute talk starts 1 hr before listed concert start time)
