Place: Cargill United Methodist Church, 2000 Wesley Avenue Janesville, WI

21 Altos, 21 Bass, 29 Sopranos, and 12 Tenors – and that’s just the chorus.  Add 3 soloists, a 20-piece orchestra, and a conductor, and this year’s Choral Union comes into focus.

Choral Union celebrates its 133rd anniversary with two performances of “Elijah,” an oratorio by Felix Mendelssohn.  Concerts will take place at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, December 6, 2014, and again at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, December 7, 2014, at Cargill United MethodistChurch, 2000 Wesley Avenue, Janesville.

To the masses of music-loving people, Mendelssohn requires no introduction – especially when “Elijah” is mentioned.  In many circles, the oratorio has taken its place on a level with “The Messiah.”

Choral Union board member Rochell Cheplak notes, “I’m a cheerleader at heart because I’ve always thought more people would become classical music fans if they’d give it a chance, and Choral Union is here to give you that chance.”

Tickets are $10.00 and may be purchased at the door on both performance days, in advance by calling (608) 741-5074, or from Choral Union members.  Credit cards are not accepted.

Ticket requests made by phone in advance may be picked up at the “Will-Call” area at Cargill United Methodist Church on the day of the concerts. Like us on facebook: www.facebook.com/JanesvilleChoralUnion.
