Calvary United Methodist Church presents their annual Messiah sing-along concert! Music Director Brian Burns joined Anna Singer live to talk about the performance.

Calvary is celebrating their 13th year with the Messiah, and this year they've invited members of the community, regardless of singing experience, to join the choir. The congregation will be joined by singers Kara Cornell, Kirk Dougherty, Matthew Hunt, and Classical QED's Anna Singer. Brian and Anna discuss the unique atmosphere created by the candlelit evening, upgrades made to the choir and orchestra, and Brian's musical journey.
