Now a cherished Washington, DC tradition, our annual performance of Bach’s Christmas Oratorio is as joyous as the ringing-in of the holiday spirit itself, no matter how you celebrate! The Washington Post was inspired to say that this “joyous” telling of the Christmas story shows that the Consort “could go head-to-head with period ensembles anywhere.”
One of the most revered choral works in history, Handel's Messiah takes audiences on a journey of hope and redemption. From the exuberant "Hallelujah" Chorus to moving arias such as "I Know That My Redeemer Liveth," this timeless holiday annual tradition remains a must-see for everyone.
