Messiah

If you live in Oklahoma, and are wondering what to do with your evening tonight, you could do worse than making the drive to Enid to listen to the Enid Symphony Orchestra and Chorus presentation of Handel's Messiah. Last night was the first performance, and the final performance will be this evening at 7:00, Symphony Hall.

The Messiah is a rather long piece, but at Christmas, most groups who perform this wonderful work do mainly the Christmas portion - the first part of the piece, and then add a couple of scenes from the end, including the Hallelujah Chorus. That's the way it's being performed in this setting.

The soloists are rather good, and the chorus ain't bad, either. Tickets are $15, and I'm sure there are still seats available.
