This Sunday we will be blessed in welcoming members of the Bow Valley Chorus to our service. They will lead us in the singing of some parts of Handel’s Messiah. The Chorus just last year celebrated 10 years of glorious singing in the Valley, under the inspired direction of John Goulart. Over that span of time the Chorus has performed a wide variety of musical works, with orchestra, including Mozart’s Requiem and Mass in C Minor, Daniel Pinkham’s Christmas Cantata, Haydn’s Lord Nelson Mass, Faure’s Requiem, John Rutter’s Reluctant Dragon and most recently Gloria, as well as Handel’s Messiah.
