You are invited to this Christian sing-along in celebration of the death and resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ. We will sing the Easter portion of Handel's &quot;Messiah&quot; to the recorded &ldquo;accompaniment&rdquo; of a Baroque Chamber Orchestra, which features the type of instrumentation the original performance of Handel&rsquo;s &quot;Messiah&quot; oratorio had. We will conclude the rejoicing with the &quot;Hallelujah&quot; Chorus. Come join us on Saturday, April 4, from 4&ndash;5:30 p.m. at 6562 Naomi Road in Eau Claire. Bring a &quot;Messiah&quot; score if you have one or one will be provided.
