HANDEL  Messiah

Fitting for the grand opening weekend of the magnificent new Eastman School wing, the RPO, the Rochester Oratorio Society, and a quartet of acclaimed soloists bring back the splendid sounds of an iconic masterpiece, Handel’s Messiah.

Handel's magnificent choral work tells the greatest story ever told. The "Hallelujah Chorus" so moved King George II that he sprang to his feet on hearing it, and audiences have continued to do so ever since. Use this link for an audio preview.
