Testimonials:

"The ambiance of old Presser Hall, an extremely talented director, outstanding orchestral accompaniment...organ, harpsichord, renowned soloists - PLUS the chorus of 200+ voices belonging to people who range in age 'up and down the scale' all contribute to an experience of a lifetime!"
~ Judy Anderson, Wichita, Kan., Soprano

	"This is my sixth year singing. The first year I tried but was probably listening as much as singing. But no matter how many years I sing, each one has been and probably will be a thrill. I'll be 70 in June and haven't experienced many things as thrilling as this."
~ Bob Lindholm, Lindsborg, Kan., Bass

"Coming from a community where the interaction of students and community members is highly prized, the Messiah is an extension of the wonderful relationship. There really is no feeling comparable to that of having the
notes and words crescendo from the throats of more than 200 individuals and get swept up into the passion and glory of a magnificent work of art that will never lose its impact." ~ Stephanie Bahr, ’06, Hazelton, Kan., Alto
