Pilgrim Festival Chorus (PFC), the region’s principal community choral group, presents Celebrate! – Messiah and Carol Sing-along on Friday, December 18, at 7:30 pm at the Church of the Pilgrimage, 8 Town Square, Plymouth. The chorus’s sixth annual Messiah Sing will include a carol sing-along to give the audience an opportunity to sing favorite carols, a great way to prepare for the holiday season.
PFC director William B. Richter leads the audience in both carols and the familiar choruses from Part I of Handel’s masterpiece, concluding with the Hallelujah Chorus. Solos selected from Part I will be sung by featured local vocalists. Accompaniment on the church’s 55 rank Roche pipe organ will be performed by PFC accompanist/assistant director, Elizabeth Chapman Reilly.
In Messiah Sings, popular in this area for more than 40 years, the audience participates as the chorus. For many folks, both singers and listeners, a Messiah Sing is considered a necessary part of the holiday season.
Tickets for Celebrate! – Messiah and Carol Sing-along are $10.00 for adults and youth ages 12 and up, available at the door. Scores are available to borrow on site, or attendees are welcome to bring their own. Funds raised from this event support the PFC's yearly operating expenses.
