Good Friday Service: MESSIAH

The Music Department at A&P are pleased to invite everyone to our Good Friday service on Friday March 29th, 2024, at 7:30 p.m. The A&P Choir will perform Handel’s Messiah together with Ensemble Caprice and with wonderful soloists from our choir, led by conductor Léa Moisan-Perrier. The Messiah is one of music history’s most revered works and has been immensely popular since its premiere in Dublin during Holy Week in 1742. It is a large-scale choral work that tells the story of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, as depicted in the Bible. The text for Messiah was compiled by Charles Jennens, who drew extensively from the King James Bible.

The oratorio is divided into three parts:
• Part I: The Prophecy of the Messiah’s Coming
• Part II: The Passion and Death of Jesus
• Part III: The Resurrection and Final Triumph

We hope you will come and join us as we perform this dramatic story told through Handel’s sublime music.

Free will offering (30$ suggested).
