50th Anniversary of Handel’s Messiah at Saint Clement
FAMILY-FRIENDLY MESSIAH CONCERT
Saturday, December 13th | 11am to Noon
FULL MESSIAH CONCERT
Saturday, December 13th | 7pm
Usher in the Christmas Season with a beloved tradition – Handel’s Messiah at Saint Clement. This year's concert holds special significance as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of our parish's first performance of Messiah in 1975. Please note, there will be no performance of Messiah in 2026, so be sure to join us this year! The 60-minute morning concert is an interactive performance for all ages, including small children, hosted by Terri Hemmert of WXRT Radio. With soloists Nicole Besa, Marissa Simmons, Ryan Kirk, and Aaron Wardell, the evening concert is not to be missed. Both concerts will feature a 75-voice festival chorus and the Orchard Street Baroque Orchestra conducted by Jeremy J. Kiolbassa.
TENORS WANTED: Lend Your Voice to Our 50th Anniversary Messiah
Join the Chorus for Messiah 2025! This year marks the 50th anniversary of Messiah at Saint Clement and we are celebrating in a big way. Both concerts will feature a 70-voice festival chorus and orchestra. We are still looking for additional five tenors to join the chorus. All other sections are currently full!
Scores and practice materials are provided. There are no auditions, but space is limited, and choristers are expected to practice and prepare on their own. Optional sectionals will be held for those that need extra help. Due to space constraints, we can only accept a limited number of singers per section of the choir.
