New England Philharmonic and Cantata Singers Present – A Messiah for Our Time

In a fitting conclusion for a city that hosted the American premiere of Handel’s Messiah in 1818, NEP joins forces with Cantata Singers and vocal soloists on Sunday, April 28, at 3 pm in Jordan Hall to present A Messiah for Our Time. Sven-David Sandström’s dramatic 2009 setting of the Messiah’s well-known text will be performed for the first time on the East Coast. Co-conducted by Tianhui Ng and Cantata Singers Music Director Noah Horn, the season finale marks the first collaboration between the two organizations. Maggie Finnegan (soprano), Maria Dominique Lopez (mezzo-soprano), Dylan Morrongiello (tenor), and Leroy Davis (bass-baritone) join as soloists for the performance.
