About this Event

Buffalo Philharmonic Chorus presents Handel's Messiah - OLV Basilica

Celebrate Western New York's Holiday Tradition as the Buffalo Philharmonic Chorus presents Handel's MESSIAH. Our first season with Dr. Vernon Huff brings the beloved masterpiece to two magnificent venues: Our Lady of Victory National Shrine and Basilica, where we have shared years of Holiday joy, and the tight acoustics of St. Joseph University Parish. From the warm choral opening of "And the Glory of the Lord" to the triumphant "Hallelujah Chorus," experience the profound journey that has united families and friends for generations. While this year's concert features a thoughtfully refreshed selection of movements, it remains the timeless holiday classic audiences have cherished for more than thirty years. Four outstanding soloists will join the Chorus and members of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra to create shared memories in celebration of the transformative power of music.
