HI

mean anything. However I read what the seller wrote and how much heshe is
selling it for and I got suspicious. Anyways I could be just getting old and
weary but I thought why not check it out you never know.

>Several Dancers Core has initiated an artistic collaboration between its

>to
>present Georg Friedrich Händel’s "Messiah" on Saturday, April 1, 2006
>at 8:00
>p.m. at the Rialto Center for the Performing Arts. The contemporary

>appropriate for the Easter season. This performance will be the closing

>Sue Schroeder, Artistic Director of CORE Performance Company, describes
>her
>choreographic work on "Messiah" as... “an illuminated manuscript, where
>the
>dance adds color, movement and meaning to an already rich text and
>score.”
>Schroeder’s "Messiah" originally premiered with taped music in 2001 as
>part of
>Several Dancers Core’s 20th Anniversary Season. The work has been
>updated
>and expanded incorporating more of Händel’s score and integrating
>musicians and
> singers into the stage performance. Canadian-born Antoine Plante,
>Artistic
>Director of Houston’s early music ensemble, Mercury Baroque, will be
>conducting the musicians of the Atlanta Baroque Orchestra and a chorus in
>the
>performance at the Rialto.
>
>Much controversy at the time of Händel’s premiere of the "Messiah"
>revolved
>around its sacred text being performed in a theatrical setting.
>Schroeder’s
>adaptation of the sacred work for dance, particularly contemporary dance,
>is
>equally innovative and provocative. The combination of an intimate,
>authentic period performance with the unorthodox movement approach of
>contemporary
>dance challenges the conventions of performance of this musical
>masterpiece.
>CORE, under the artistic direction of Sue Schroeder and the Atlanta
>Baroque
>Orchestra have collaborated to re-envision this classic work with
>contemporary
>sophistication. The vocal soloists for "Messiah" will be: Ana
>Trevino-Godfrey, soprano; Gerrod Pagenkopf, countertenor; Joseph Gaines,
>tenor; and Sam
>Handley, bass.

>Tickets are $16, $26 or $42 and may be purchased through the Rialto Box
