Handel's Messiah

Since its premiere in 1742, "Messiah" has been in nearly continuous performance. In Dublin, London, and across the world, choruses and orchestras large and small have mounted productions of Handel's timeless masterpiece, a musical tapestry that recounts the story of Christ's life, from birth through death and resurrection.

Duke Chapel's own "Messiah" concerts began in 1933 and have become a beloved tradition of the Duke and Durham communities. This year's ninety-third annual performances will be presented on period instruments with Baroque-era tuning, and will include selections from Parts I, II, and III.
