“Messiah” rehearsals begin Oct. 4 in Gilliom Room
Rehearsals for Bluffton University’s 121st performance of Handel’s “Messiah” will be held from 7-8:30 p.m. Tuesdays, beginning Oct. 4, in the Gilliom Room of Mosiman Hall on campus.
Anyone interested in singing, from high school students to adults, is invited to join the chorus, which typically ranges from 70-90 members, including Bluffton students, faculty, staff and community members. There is no cost to participate.
Rehearsals, to be held each Tuesday except Nov. 22, will lead to the traditional Advent-season performance at 4 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 4 in Founders Hall. Jonathan Wey, visiting conductor, will conduct the performance, also featuring regional soloists and an orchestra.
