After the huge success of The Georgetown Bach Chorale's venture into the land of jazz, it was unanimously agreed that this eclectic bunch of singers should saunter down Broadway one more time. Favourite jazz standards and Broadway show tunes will be sung by sultry voices as these fine singers strut their stuff backed up by piano, drums, bass, and boas. A marvelous multi-course dinner will be presented to make the evening complete.

Handel 's Messiah Handel's timeless oratorio will be offered four times this autumn by Georgetown's own Baroque choir complete with orchestra led from the harpsichord by its artistic director, Ron Greidanus.
