MOUNT VERNON – Mount Vernon Nazarene University’s Choral Union is beginning preparation for the 54th annual presentation of Handel's "Messiah," scheduled for Sunday, Dec. 4, at 7 p.m. 

MVNU has invited community members to sing with the students in this traditional performance.  

Unless you are a returning participant, interested singers should contact Dr. Robert Tocheff by email at Bob.Tocheff@mvnu.edu or by phone at 740-397-9000, Ext. 3005, to schedule an audition.

Rehearsal times are Wednesdays 4:40-5:40 p.m., as well as Thursday, Dec. 1, in the R.R. Hodges Chapel/Fine Arts Center on the MVNU campus. The first practice will be Wednesday, Sept. 28, and regular rehearsal attendance is expected to prepare a quality performance.
