'Messiah' Sing-In At Guild Hall
December 19, 1996
Keeping a longstanding holiday tradition alive, Guild Hall will again invite the community to attend its annual Messiah Sing-In, at 2 p.m. on Sunday.
Guests can add their voices to the notes of an all-volunteer community orchestra, which includes members of the Chamber Orchestra of the East End and college musicians. Edward Liotta, the founder of the orchestra, will conduct. The soloists who will perform include the soprano Elisa Spiotto, the alto Sheila Wolman, Seamas Ryan, a tenor, and Eric Holte, a baritone.
Those who wish to follow along will be able to purchase vocal scores of Schirmer's edition of Handel's "Messiah" at the door. When the singing is through, participants will be welcomed at a holiday reception in the museum's lobby.
