Wilton Great Trains Holiday Show To Run Through Mid-January WILTON — Model trains, holiday cheer, and family fun will return with one of the region’s favorite winter traditions: The Great Trains Holiday Show. This year’s presentation will open Friday, November 24, and continue through Monday, January 15 (Dr Martin Luther King Jr Day) at the historical society’s headquarters, 224 Danbury Road in Wilton. The public is invited to explore Wilton Historical Society’s 18th and 19th Century historic buildings — charmingly decorated for the holiday season — to find multiple layouts of model trains that wind their way through miniature snowy landscapes, vibrant towns, and mountain tunnels, as well as some unexpected characters. The interactive displays and model holiday village are perfect holiday fun for all ages. Whether a model train builder or collector, young wannabe train conductors, or a family looking for a
delightful seasonal experience, the Great Trains Holiday Show has something for everyone. Hours are Wednesday through Saturday, 10 am-4 pm; and Sunday, 12-4 pm. Admission is $10 for adults, and $5 for children. Special holiday programming is planned on select Saturdays in December, including a singalong with Music on the Hill on December 2nd and a visit from Santa Claus on December 9. Betts Store Museum Shop will also be open for holiday treats and treasures. Visit wiltonhistorical.org to learn more about this event and view the full schedule for special holiday programs. One young visitor is clearly in awe of the presentation of a previous Great Trains Holiday Show at Wilton Historical Society.
Handel’s ‘Messiah’: An Anthem During The Advent Season BETHEL — On December 22, Walnut Hill Community Church will partner with Danbury Music Centre to present a 70-minute concert featuring some of the most popular sections of Handel’s Messiah and Christmas carols. The music will be performed by the 50-person Danbury Concert Choir and Symphony Chamber Orchestra. The concert will begin at 7:30 pm. Handel’s Messiah premiered in Dublin, Ireland, on April 13, 1742. With recordbreaking attendance, the audience was immediately captivated by the composition. While it took a few years for it to gain wide popularity, by 1750 it returned Handel as a preeminent composer. Amazingly, the piece itself was written
quickly over a period of three or four weeks, between August and September 1741, as Handel wrote from morning to evening. The first portion of Messiah prophesies the birth of Jesus, the second part focuses on His sacrifice for the world, and the final section on His resurrection. At the end of the composition, Handel wrote the letters SDG for “Soli Deo Gloria,” which translates as “To God alone the glory.” It is believed that Handel attributed the writing of Messiah to help from divine inspiration. Since Handel’s death in 1759, the piece has gained popularity around the world. While initially composed for Easter, in 1818 it was performed on Christmas Day
in Boston, which began a tradition that has spread across the United States and into Europe. Today, the piece is one of the most performed classical works in history and is regularly performed by major orchestras as well as local ensembles. Adam DePasquale, one of the lead pastors at Walnut Hill shared, “For years we have been dreaming of an opportunity to introduce the Messiah to a new generation. The piece immediately grabs your attention, lifts your eyes to heaven and opens your heart to God. “I cannot imagine a better way to prepare for Christmas than to attend a live performance of the Messiah,” he added. “Perhaps one of the greatest gifts a person could give this season would be to invite their family,
friends, neighbors, and co-workers to attend the concert with them.” Tickets are $18 in advance, $20 at the door, and available through walnuthillcc. org/messiah. In the spirit of Christmas and following Handel’s example — who gave large amounts of money to hospitals, orphanages and prisoners — all proceeds of “Handel’s Messiah and Carols” concert will go to the Walnut Hill Food Pantry, which provides food for nearly 2,000 families from the greater Danbury area each month. Walnut Hill Community Church is at 156 Walnut Hill Road in Bethel. For directions or additional information call 203-796-7373 or visit walnuthillcc.org.
