El Mesias

Cathedral of the Sacred Heart, Pensacola2 dates

Continue the celebration of America's 250 in a unique way. Of course we're presenting Handel's Messiah, the piece that gave us our start in 1935. But we remind audiences that during much of the Revolutionary War, Pensacola was under Spanish rule. Spain assisted the Patriots in efforts against the British, affecting the outcome. We combine these two origin stories by singing El Mesías, a new translation in Spanish. Come hear Handel's familiar oratorio in a new way.
