“Messiah” rehearsals begin at Bluffton University
Rehearsals for Bluffton University’s 124th performance of Handel’s “Messiah” will be held from 7-8:30 p.m. on Tuesdays each week from Sept. 24-Dec. 3 in the Gilliom Room of Mosiman Hall on campus.
There are a total of 10 rehearsals, one dress rehearsal and one concert.
Anyone interested in singing, from high school students to adults, is invited to join the chorus, which includes Bluffton students, faculty, staff and community members. There is no cost to participate.
Rehearsals will lead to the traditional Advent-season performance in Yoder Recital Hall at 4 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 8.
Dr. Bo Young Kang, director of choral activities, will conduct the performance, also featuring regional soloists and an orchestra.
For more information, contact Dr. Kang at [email protected] or the music department office 419-358-3347.
