As I work from a script, to ensure I don’t miss key details such as dates, times or locations, I’m posting it for folks who would rather read than listen to the updates. It’s in the extended entry section below.

Every year for the past 125 years Handel’s Messiah has been performed in Lindsborg during Easter week. This year continues the tradition, marking the 125th continuous year of performances. It turns out this is the longest continuing performance of the Messiah in all of North America.
If you’d like to be a part of this wonderful tradition, rehearsals for this year’s performance begin on Sunday, February 5th, at 3pm in Presser Hall. Part of what makes the Messiah performance special is the participation of so many local folks; if you’d like to become a part of the Messiah choir, please contact Daniel Mahraun, at 785 227 3311, ext 8334.
