The LSO and Chorus return to First Presbyterian Church of Lancaster for the 5th annual performance of Handel's Messiah—this year with a special twist. Experience this beloved masterwork performed entirely by candlelight, as flickering flames illuminate the music and the darkness deepens every note.
From "Comfort Ye" to the triumphant "Hallelujah" Chorus, Messiah by Candlelight offers an intimate and unforgettable celebration of this timeless holiday tradition. In the warm acoustics of First Presbyterian Church, with orchestra, chorus, and soloists united by the glow of candlelight, this performance invites you to experience Handel's greatest work in a whole new light.
