Handel’s Messiah, a timeless masterpiece is usually heard in December, prior to Christmas, notwithstanding the fact that Handel intended it to be performed during the Easter season. Nota Bene Players & Singers has been establishing its own tradition by reverting to the composer’s original wishes. In March, during the Palm Sunday weekend, we mark the beginning of Holy Week with a performance of Messiah by a small ensemble, similar to what Handel himself utilized when the work premiered in Dublin in 1742. The solo arias will be sung by members of the professional NBPS chorus.
* Concerts dedicated to the memory of Jan Overduin, longtime keyboard continuo player with the NBPS.
Artistic Director Howard Dyck conducts.
