Handel's Messiah

Friday & Saturday, December 11 & 12 at 7:30pm

Ottawa Choral Workshops presents Handel's beloved oratorio Messiah, a traditional staple of the Christmas music season. But the story Handel tells extends beyond the Christmas narrative and this performance includes many of the excellent movements that are too often omitted simply because they are in scenes from the rest of the story.

Ottawa Choral Workshops brings together experienced singers from across the community to explore major choral works in focused project intensives led by conductor, pianist, and educator Roland Graham.

Each project forms a new ensemble drawn from a wider collective of singers, creating a dynamic artistic environment built around curiosity, collaboration, musical growth, and ambitious performance standards.
