Phillip McLendon will conduct this performance of George Frederick Handel's choral masterpiece, "Messiah." James Mooy has organized the orchestra which includes members of the Santa Barbara City College Symphony. Erin Bonski-Evans is the organist. Four outstanding soloists will also perform. All are volunteering their talents. That covers everything and everybody except the chorus. That's because the chorus is you -- the audience!
All proceeds go to Unity Shoppe, the Santa Barbara non-profit which helps some 18,000 of our low-income neighbors, children, and the elderly annually. It's great music and great fun for a great cause. Everyone is invited to Make a joyful noise and raise your voice on high. Or come to listen. It’s always a great performance!
