Community Messiah Sing
2025-12-28 19:00 - 20:00 | St Luke’s Church, 410 N Main ST, NY, 14701, United States
The community is invited to celebrate the Christmas season by joining the Festival Choir at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church and special guests in a community singing of Handel’s Messiah on Sunday, December 28th at 7pm in the Church.

This well-loved local event has become a tradition for many in the Jamestown area as a way to keep the season alive during the week between the Christmas holiday and New Year’s celebrations. The performance is free to the public – both singers and audience members.

Written by George Frederic Handel, the Messiah has become a favorite and familiar Christmas tradition for many. First performed in 1742, the work recounts the story of the life of Jesus as told in the Bible. Often called “timeless and Inspirational” the piece has become one of the worlds most treasured selections.
Phillip McMullen, Director of Trinity Masterworks Choir in Fredonia, will be the conductor for the program and renowned local organist Brian Bogey will accompany on St. Luke’s spectacular Aeolian Skinner Organ.

The program will include Part 1, often called the “Christmas portion” of the piece, as well as the Hallelujah Chorus. Scores will be provided, although singers who have their own score are invited to bring them. Guests are welcome to sing along or to just come and listen to the music. All singers are invited to a rehearsal for the community choir on Saturday, December 27 from 3-5 PM at St. Luke’s. Call time on Sunday, December 28 for the choir is 6:15 PM
