About

Around the world, it is one of the most enduring works to come from the Baroque era. First performed in Dublin in 1742, Handel’s oratorio Messiah portrays Advent, the birth, the Passion, and the Resurrection of Christ. Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Director of Choruses Norman Mackenzie steps up to the podium to conduct the first part of this work. Don't miss this beloved Atlanta tradition as world-class soloists and the internationally acclaimed Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and Chorus raise the roof with this glorious masterwork.

Holiday concerts are made possible through an endowment from the Livingston Foundation in memory of Leslie Livingston Kellar.
