Avon Choral Program Invites Community to Sing Along to Hallelujah

When Avon High School Combined Choirs sing "Hallelujah" from George Fredric Handel’s "Messiah," the program is inviting community members to sing along with the students in the upcoming winter concert.

The work will be sung during the finale of the concert, An Evening of Choral Music.

"The goal of this venture is to connect the Avon community through music," according to a press release from the district. "The only prerequisite for those who wish to participate in this performance is that they have sung this piece in the past."
