In a celebration of the enduring power of classical music, Valley Music Series proudly announces the much-anticipated, annual Handel's MESSIAH SING on Sunday, March 29, 2026 at 3pm at Valley Presbyterian Church in Brookfield. Parking is free and the building is wheelchair accessible, all on one level. The doors will open at 2:30. Handel's Messiah is a monumental work that transcends the boundaries of time and culture. Renowned for its majestic choruses, stirring arias, and uplifting spirituality, this masterpiece remains a cornerstone of the holiday season and a cherished tradition for music lovers everywhere.
Directed by Eric Dale Knapp with the Connecticut Choral Society and a lineup of soloists and musicians, this afternoon of singing the Messiah together promises to be a truly unforgettable experience.
The event is open to the public and all are invited to attend to sing along (scores will be available to borrow) or simply relax and enjoy the music. From the exhilarating "Hallelujah" chorus to the poignant "Amen" finale, everyone in attendance will be swept away by the emotional depth and musical brilliance of Handel's composition.
There is a $20 suggested donation at the door to attend/sing. In the tradition of Handel’s Messiah, the Valley Music Series offers MESSIAH SING as a benevolent act in support of the Association of Religious Communities (ARC). ARC is Danbury-based interfaith organization founded in 1974. The organization is dedicated to advancing peace, justice, and human dignity throughout the greater Danbury region and neighboring western Connecticut communities.
All donations received at the door today will help sustain ARC’s vital outreach: feeding families through Comida, providing emergency assistance for basic needs, helping individuals and families secure stable housing, assisting refugees and immigrants in the work of resettlement. In addition ARC provides support for children in the Danbury schools through volunteer mentorship, and responding with compassion and resolve to the realities of domestic violence and hate. ARC’s mission is at once practical and deeply humane, joining immediate service with enduring moral purpose. www.arcforpeace.org
MESSIAH SING stands not only as an event, but as an offering of shared hope: a musical expression of charity, fellowship, and the enduring dignity of every human life.
