siah", will be featured in the

evening in Churchill hall au
ditorium on the Southern
Oregon college campus begin

The "Messiah" is almost

old. The text was taken from
the Bible.
"Messiah" was first per
formed in Dublin, Ireland, in
1742 and has since received
countless performances all
over the world. Legend has
it that at one of the early
performances of the oratorio,
King George II was so affect
ed by the singing of the
Hallelujah chorus that he
rose to his feet, the audience,
of course, following his ex
ample. Since that time it has
become traditional ' for the
audience to stand during the
singing of the Hallelujah
chorus.
In tonight's performance
by the Southern Oregon Col
lege choir and the Little
Symphony orchestra, four of
the best-known choruses
from Messiah will be present
ed. They are: "For Unto Us
a Child Is - Born"; "Behold
the Lamb of God"; "Surely
He Hath Borne Our Griefs";
and the thrilling Hallelujah
chorus. ,
