Hallelujah! Hallelujah! The West Jordan Symphony is looking for singers for its 30th annual production of selections from Handel's Messiah!
Anyone who is wanting to perform a solo from the monumental work is encouraged to come audition. Every year, we make a set list of what we are looking to perform. We encourage auditionees to first consider auditioning on one of these selected solos; however, if a soloist is wanting to audition on a solo that we did not include, we would still love to hear you and will consider the solo for the performance.
Our selected solos this year are the following:
#2 Comfort Ye my people (Tenor)
#3 Ev’ry Valley Shall be Exalted (Tenor)
#8 Behold, a Virgin Shall Conceive (Alto)
#9 O Thou that Tellest good Tidings (Alto - with Chorus)
#14-16 Shepherds/Angel recits (Soprano)
#18 Rejoice Greatly (Soprano)
#19/20 Then Shall the Eyes/He Shall Feed (Alto)
#38 How Beautiful are the Feet (Soprano)
#45 I know that my Redeemer (Soprano)
