Name: Handel's Messiah at the Duke Chapel
Start: 2024-12-08T16:00:00-05:00
End: 2024-12-08T18:00:00-05:00

In what has become a holiday tradition, we will attend a performance at Duke Chapel of Handel's *Messiah*, arranged by Mozart and presented by a full chorus and orchestra. Between the music and the architecture of the Chapel (which is actually more a cathedral, less a chapel), this is a spectacular presentation of high art at its finest.
The concert will last 2 hours, with a 15 minute intermission.
The music will start at 4 pm, Sunday, December 8. Tickets are $38 (plus $2 fee) at tickets.duke.edu. This includes parking at the Bryan Center parking garage next to the Chapel.
After the performance, we will meet at the Duke statue in front of the Chapel and repair for dinner to the Brodhead Center next door. I highly recommend it for more than a dozen excellent restaurants.
This is the Sunday performance, the last of three. If you cannot make it on Sunday, evening performances the previous Friday and Saturday are also available.
I urge you to buy your tickets early, since these performances always sell out. If that happens and you are left out in the cold, you can often buy a ticket from someone else on meetup.
See you there. Happy Holidays.
