An annual tradition since 1879, UMS’s presentation of Handel’s Messiah has become a “signature” Ann Arbor experience. We’re so grateful for the participation of the community in this event year-after-year, and we hope you’ll share with us some of your favorite Messiah memories: how many years you’ve attended, why you look forward to Messiah every year, what makes this event special to you, little remembrances…
I’m posting a video interview here with UMS usher Paul Bianchi who attended his first Messiah last season. Scroll ahead to minute 3:20 for his special memories.
And let the holiday season begin!
