George Handel composed Mes­

astonishing 24 days. It is- recog­
nized by most music scholars as the
Baroque era com poser's greatest
choral masterpiece, and is one of the
m ost-perform ed— and most be­
loved— pieces of choral music in
the world.
H andel's fam ous m elodies and
dram atic setting o f the Biblical
texts brings to life the story o f the
birth, life, death and resurrection
o f Jesus Christ.
The Bravo! Vancouver Chorale
has toured both nationally and in­

rale traveled to Croatia at the invita­
tion of the City of Dubrovnik to
perform with the internationally ac­

chestra.
The Chorale has toured the east
coast and performed at Lincoln Cen­
ter with the Duke Ellington School of
the Arts Jazz Orchestra; and has per­
formed concert partnerships with
Portland Opera, Seattle Jazz Singers,
Washington State Ballet, Sno-King
Chorale, and other arts organizations.
