Got to stand for the Messiah Hallelujah Chorus this evening.

It was performed by our local orchestra and chorale.

I think it's a great tradition.

Perhaps you could play the Hallelujah Chorus on the steel.

We got to stand for the Chorus again this week.

Here is a video of an orchestra and chorale performing the piece. You can see the members of the audience rise as the chorus begins. The orchestra and chorale look very similar to our local groups.

Went to my daughter's church tonight to see their Christmas cantata.As soon as the orchestra began playing Handel's Messiah,everyone stood up.What a beautiful sound and sight it was!
