In collaboration with GBH, H+H invites you to join us for a special televised and streaming performance of Handel’s Messiah, an uplifting and joyous experience for a holiday season unlike any other. This triumphant concert is our free gift to the community, for all to enjoy. Handel’s Messiah, one of the most beloved holiday traditions worldwide, begins with the phrase “Comfort ye my people.” In a year where people need comfort more than ever, GBH and H+H join forces to bring alive this beloved holiday tradition. The collaboration displays innovative technology and the resilience of our musicians, even through a global pandemic. This is H+H’s 167th consecutive year performing Handel’s masterpiece.
