WOA's annual holiday tradition returns! Experience the sheer power of a full orchestra and 2 choirs, along with the community lending their voices. The concert is topped off with the singing of 'Hallelujah Chorus!' This beloved community event has a full house every year, so reserve your tickets early to secure your seat!

The Arts at Ascension presents the fifth annual Sing-Along of George Frederick Handel’s classic holiday oratorio “Messiah.” It’s a free, family-friendly holiday afternoon, featuring soloists and choristers from The Arizona Masterworks Chorale, the choir from Peace in the Desert Church and instrumentalists from the Women’s Orchestra of Arizona — plus the voices of everyone who loves singing choruses from Handel’s magnificent creation.

Come and sing along, or just sit back and enjoy the greatest Christmas oratorio ever. Nothing can match the experience of everyone coming together to sing 'Hallelujah Chorus' at the close of the performance!
