Messiah

Went to a rehearsal for Messiah this morning. The Ottawa CAMMAC group organizes a community “performance” every year. I think the audience is outnumbered by chorus three or four to one.

This rehearsal was mercifully free of lumbering basses, and was really quite good. A few pitch problems in the soprano section, and the tenors were new to the music, but otherwise quite enjoyable.

The “performance” is on Friday at Dominion-Chalmers United Church, which, incidentally, is the church of my grandmother’s (Edith and Len’s) family.

I also found this site about Messiah’s influence on Beethoven.
