Handel's Messiah Sing-and-Play-Along
December 26, 2011 marks our 42nd annual Handel's Messiah Sing-and-Play-Along. UUC is delighted to host this event, which is renowned in the Seattle community.
We sing and play every movement and everyone gets a chance to sing the solos!
Messiah Sing-and-Play-Alongs have had some exciting moments from an enormous round of applause for a particular trumpet player who tackled a solo with aplomb, to auction winners who have the privilege of conducting the enormous group for one movement!
Bring a vocal score if you have one. (Preferred edition is Watkins Shaw published by Novello.) Instrumentalists, please bring a music stand. Refreshments are served during the two intermissions. This spectacular event is masterfully conducted by Karen P. Thomas, Artistic Director and Conductor of Seattle Pro Musica and Music Director of University Unitarian Church.

Question: |
I see there are no more general tickets left. Are there any Observation tickets left? |
Answer: |
I'm sorry, but we are completely sold out. If you would like, you can arrive sometime after 6pm and get your name on a waiting list. We often have patrons who turn in tickets that evening, so there might be some available at the door. |
