The Music Series

Since 1990, the Music Series has presented annual performances of Handel’s Messiah each December, as well as other occasional concerts. The chorus rehearses for several weeks leading up to performances, making this opportunity possible for a wide variety of community singers.

Anyone interested in joining the chorus or supporting its performances is encouraged to contact us. Community members who wish to attend Music Series concerts can find updates on Facebook, or on our Special Events & Music Calendar.

The church is decorated for the Oratorio Chorus' annual performance of the Messiah.
