HANDEL'S MESSIAH to be Presented by Third Coast Symphony

This December, the Third Coast Symphony will present two performances of Handel's Messiah at two Chicago landmark venues.

'We're thrilled to present Handel's Messiah, a cherished holiday tradition, at these two beautiful historic venues in Chicago,' said Music Director Victor Muenzer. 'It's an honor to be part of the Studebaker Theater's popular Second Fridays open studios event and performing at the South Shore Cultural Center is a special treat for the orchestra.'
