What's Messiah Queered?

It's a joyful, traditional sing-along of Handel's Messiah that is gender-inclusive. You're free to sing the chorus part that best suits your voice and spirit, or just listen to our live orchestra, vocal soloists, and choir.

I want to sing along! Where can I get the music?

You can download it at manitobamobilemusic.ca or use your own score (we'll be using the Novello edition).

Will there be an orchestra?

Yes! The orchestra will be conducted by Ken MacDonald, a member of the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, and he'll be joined by queer musicians and allies as well as invited students from the Dafoe Faculty of Music at the University of Manitoba. Vocal soloists to be announced.
