About this Event

The CSO Baroque Ensemble, Belle Voci, and professional soloists present Handel’s Messiah, conducted by Paula DeWit, on December 9, 10, and 11 at 7:30 p.m.

This best-loved oratorio includes favourites such as “Hallelujah” and “The Trumpet Shall Sound.” Together they present this glorious oratorio, a musical rite of the holiday season. 

One of the special challenges in performing Messiah year after year is to keep the work sounding fresh as if one had just discovered it. Those in attendance can expect to hear a more detailed, articulate style and quicker tempos based on Baroque dance rhythms and speech patterns. 

This is an opportunity to join Music Director Paula DeWit, and their four amazing soloists, Colleen Donnelly, Shane Hanson, Jonny Michel, and Dave Rosborough. 

Each Venue has stunning esthetics and beautiful acoustics. Tickets are for sale on their website chilliwacksymphony.com

The performances will be held on: 

 Friday December 9, 2022  at St James Catholic Church, Abbotsford 

 Saturday December 10, 2022 at Holy Rosary Cathedral, Vancouver 

 Sunday December 11, 2022 at Fleetwood Christian Reformed Church, Surrey
