The following announcement comes from our friends at the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra (below):
The Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra Chorus announces auditions for its 2014 performance of George Frideric Handel’s Baroque oratorio “Messiah.” (You can hear the most famous chorus — the Hallelujah Chorus — at the bottom in a popular YouTube video that has almost 3 million hits.)
