The Fayetteville Symphony Orchestra will once again partner with Cumberland Choral Arts to perform Handel's Messiah, a work recognized around the world for its memorable "Hallelujah" chorus. Students from The Fayetteville Symphony Youth Orchestra and Campbellton Youth Chorus will provide preshow music onstage, starting at 6:30p.m. FSO's Executive Director, Anna Meyer, is excited to continue this holiday collaboration.
"The Fayetteville Symphony looks forward to Handel's Messiah every year. It has become a beloved holiday tradition in our community, and we love sharing the stage with CCA. All are invited to attend this fabulous concert," shared Meyer in a press release.
Due to high demand, this year's performance will take place at Seabrook Auditorium. Moving to Seabrook allows the performance to welcome more guests than ever before! The concert is free, but organizers are requiring patrons reserve tickets to ensure everyone has a seat in the auditorium.
"Over the years, the Cumberland Oratorio Singers/Cumberland Choral Arts organization has offered Messiah as a gift to the community," added CCA Director Dr. Michael Martin in a press release. "The way our organization connects to the Fayetteville community is vitally important and my effort is always to keep that spirit every time we perform it."
This performance is supported in part by Fayetteville State University, The North Carolina Arts Council, and The Arts Council of Fayetteville/Cumberland County.
