The holiday season opens with A Baroque Christmas, a Classical Series performance that welcomes back "one of the finest baroque conductors" (London "Independent") Nicholas McGegan. The program of Baroque repertoire includes great arias from Handel's Messiah, including "Ev'ry Valley Shall Be Exalted," "O thou, that tellest good tidings to Zion," and "The trumpet shall sound." Also, on the program is Arcangelo Corelli's Christmas Concerto and arias from Bach's Christmas Oratorio. McGegan leads the Houston Symphony and a starry quartet of vocal soloists from the world of opera: soprano Angela Meade, mezzo-soprano J'Nai Bridges in her Houston Symphony debut, tenor Chad Shelton, and bass Morris Robinson. This performance is livestreamed on Saturday, Dec. 5, at 8 p.m. CST for those wanting to enjoy at home during their holiday season festivities.
