#messiah

Every year around December, the same set of cultural rituals get repeated, depending on your performing art of choice. For ballet fans it's 'The Nutcracker' that marks the holiday season, for theatergoers it's 'A Christmas Carol,' and for classical music lovers, nothing says Christmas like performances of 'Messiah.'
