New York City
Heroic Handel – Judas Maccabaeus
Harris Theater for Music and Dance in Millennium Park, Chicago
$27 - $75
The story of a people’s triumph told in music of high drama and glorious pageantry, Judas Maccabaeus is George Frideric Handel at his heroic best. This will be a musical evening full of rousing choruses, ravishing duets, and fiery arias. Jane Glover conducts a thrilling work that rivals Messiah in choral splendor. This piece also has special resonance with Hannukah, as it tells the epic story leading up to the Jewish Festival of Lights.
