Then, in November, the ensemble presents a one-night-only performance of Handel's legendary Messiah. Continuing the festivities in December, the ensemble performs Benjamin Britten's A Ceremony of Carols.
March sees a strings-only performance of works by JS Bach, Arcangelo Corelli, and George Frideric Handel, and the season culminates in April with a program focusing on unsung early music and baroque composers.
Each program will have one performance at Evanston's St. Luke's Church, and every program except for the Messiah will also be presented at Roosevelt University's Ganz Hall.
