I know we've sort of done ballet (and opera) but I've just seen an interesting article in the online Globe & Mail (Toronto) which some might find interesting. It starts: Imagine Stevie Wonder crooning "O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion," or Patti Austin belting out "But who may abide the day of His coming." Wonder and Austin are just two of the high-powered black artists who lent their considerable talents to a 1992 concept CD called Handel's Messiah: A Soulful Celebration which has, in turn, inspired Patrick Parson to choreograph his new work Soulful Messiah,which debuts this week.

The full article is here at the Globe

(I'm always amazed when this new "Make a link" works ... or doesn't!)

So, has anyone heard the CD?
