Wiregrass Community Messiah Sing-A-Long

The Coffee County Arts Alliance and the Enterprise State Community College Division of Fine Arts are helping the community ring in the holiday season with the Wiregrass Community “Messiah” Sing-Along, a rendition of Handel’s great work.

The Wiregrass Community “Messiah” Sing-Along, under the direction and leadership of CCAA President and ESCC Division of Fine Arts Chair Dr. Ken Thomas, is a community sing-along event that includes featured soloists, orchestra and chorus to provide the core support. Soloists and the orchestra will include ESCC Fine Arts faculty/students, community members, and members of the Columbus Symphony Orchestra. The event will also feature the talents of special guest soloist Dr. Rosephanye Powell, a world-renowned composer, educator and soprano.

“This is our gift to the community, and what better way to bring the community together than with the music of Handel’s ‘Messiah,’” Dr. Ken Thomas said. “We look forward to celebrating and rejoicing with the beautiful music.”

The Wiregrass Community “Messiah” Sing-Along will be held on Sunday, Dec. 5, at 4:30 p.m. at First Baptist Church of Enterprise. This is a free event for the community, but donations to the Coffee County Arts Alliance are appreciated.

The Wiregrass Community, Messiah Sing-along is created with a desire to provide Coffee County and the Wiregrass Area with a sing-along rendition of Handel’s Messiah.

The Sing-along is founded on principles of openness and community – everyone is welcome as the community gathers together in the performance of this celebrated work.

Handel wrote and composed about the human response to the divine.

Nowhere is this more apparent than in his famous work “Messiah”. The feelings of joy from “the Hallelujah choruses” are second to none. All those of a heavy heart, will surely lift their spirits and rejuvenate their minds…

*There is no admission fee for this event. However, donations will be accepted to help defray associated costs.

*Rehearsals are Monday evenings from 6:00 PM- 7:45 PM @The Enterprise State Community College.
