Messiah 2010 - A Great Performance!

(Click to enlarge)

 We had a great crowd to see the performance on Sunday, December 19, 2010.  I've heard many positive comments from audience members.  Several people were very grateful they remembered to come; it was what they needed.

Soloists
We're excited to have some great photos and videos of the concert.  Thanks to Lizet and Glen for taking pictures during rehearsals and at the concert.  Thanks to Kirk for taking the video.  Photos and videos can be viewed on the website.  The video is a playlist, so you can click on the Overture and it will play the whole program, or you can scroll through and start at any point.  If you want to make comments or add songs to your own playlists or subscribe, you'll want to go directly to the ECO YouTube Channel for that.  The photo slideshow is small, but if you click on the center of the slideshow it will take you to the web album where you can view a larger slideshow. 

Thanks to everyone who participated.  It is a lot of work, and working out the details can be stressful right up until the end.  But it is worth it.  Thanks to Ryan and Steve for rehearsing the groups and being patient with us.  Thanks to Becky O. and the rest of the committee for following through on publicity, decorations, programs, food, sound, video, pictures, funds, facility use, stage setup, etc.
