A
performance of Handel’s Messiah is being organised by Marjon Gilbert (443 4921) to be a joyous uplifting experience for Christmas. So the Wanaka Community Choir was formed and rehearsals started in October, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 6-7:30, at St.Andrews Presbyterian Church, Tenby St, Wanaka. New singers are still welcome to join, including those who may never have sung before. Tenors can expect a very friendly welcome. Extra support is available from a website (www.WanakaMessiah. blogspot.com) and a computer CD that
helps people practice their parts at home. About one third of the Messiah will be performed, mainly the Christmas music and ending with the Hallelujah chorus.

The performance will be on Sunday 11th December, 6:30pm at St.Andrews, with conductor John Buchanan, accompanist Cheryl Taylor and soloists from the choir. The event is being supported by Wanaka Combined Churches and the Upper Clutha Community Arts Council. There will be a gold coin collection at the performance to be given to the Salvation Army as a Christmas gift for Christchurch.
