Knoxville Handel Society is presenting its Spring Concert at the beautifully appointed and spacious First Baptist Church at 510 W. Main Street on April 28 at 6:00 PM. This light-filled sanctuary with wrap-around balcony is a prime venue to host a program featuring organ, full orchestra and bagpipes. The opening selection will bring goosebumps as a piper processes to the front with strains of the mighty Highland Cathedral. He’ll be joined by magnificent organ, then full orchestra. Soul-stirring and regal, it will set the stage for the opening choral piece, Christ the Lord is Risen Today, as we lift voices and instruments to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords!
Many familiar hymns include How Great Thou Art, Amazing Grace (with bagpipes), Great is Thy Faithfulness, Battle Hymn of the Republic, Lord’s Prayer by Malotte, When I Survey the Wondrous Cross, among many others. Several pieces include audience participation, for a more interactive experience of choral music. Soloists for this concert are gifted members of Knoxville Handel Society.
This inspiring concert of hymns and anthems with magnificent orchestra, organ and bagpipes will be an experience of profound depth and extravagant praise.
