Hailed as “Spirited!” by the Chicago Tribune, the Apollo Chorus’s rendition of Handel’s “Messiah” has been performed nearly every December since 1879—a track record unmatched by other city choral organizations. Few works today are as renowned or as beloved as Handel’s Messiah, and this annual performance has become a family holiday tradition for many Chicago families. As John von Rhein from the Chicago Tribune once said, ““The oldest musical organization in Chicago has much to sing “hallelujah” about.” Soloists include Elisabeth Marshall, J'nai Bridges, Samuel Levine, and David Govertsen. Handel’s “Messiah will be performed at the beautiful Orchestra Hall at Symphony Center, 220 S. Michigan Ave., on December 6, 2014 at 3:00 p.m. and at Harris Theater for Music and Dance, 205 E. Randolph Dr., on December 20, 2014 at 3:00 p.m.
