Arizona Philharmonic and Prescott Chorale are collaborating on the first-ever immersive community performance of the holiday season—Handel’s Messiah as a special Sing-Along event. Sponsored by The James Family Foundation, this collaborative offering invites the audience to bring Messiah scores and join in the choruses, or simply bask in the surrounding music. “We are thrilled to collaborate with Prescott Chorale for a true community celebratory experience,” commented Arizona Philharmonic Artistic Director Henry Flurry. “This Messiah Sing-Along invites us all to become part of the music, bringing a meaningful new tradition to our Prescott community.”
The free pre-concert talk begins at 2:00pm, with the concert starting at 3:00pm on Sunday, November 24 at the Ruth Street Theater, 1050 Ruth Street in Prescott. Tickets start at $25 (no ticketing fee), and are available at AZPhil.org, or by calling 855-321-6724. Messiah scores will be available for purchase at the door.
The Messiah Sing-Along will be conducted by Dr. Edith A. Copley, the beloved and recently retired Regents Professor of Northern Arizona University’s Choral department. Dr. Copley is currently Vice-President of ACDA, American Choral Directors Association. She has conducted numerous performances of Messiah. This is her first appearance in Prescott.
