Handel's Messiah in Northville
By Mark Flegg
I will be performing Handel’s Messiah several times throughout the Metro-Detroit area this holiday season. The first of these has become a holiday tradition for me, as I’ve performed this production all but one of the last 15 years. This performance will take place at First Presbyterian Church in beautiful downtown Northville. From the FPC website (where more information and directions are available):
Handel’s most popular and enduring work is his oratorio based on the life of Jesus Christ, “Messiah”. The Northville Concert Chorale presents this magnificent choral work each December to a full house. The chorus is accompanied by organ, harpsichord, and the Michigan Sinfonietta Orchestra of Ann Arbor. Professional soloists sing the solo roles.
