DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Handel and Haydn S.\nMusicians: \n\nDon't miss out on
  the final opportunity this season to catch the legendary **Handel and Hay
 dn Society** for a supremely reduced ticket price!\n\n**Here's what H+H ha
 s to say about the program capping off their 2024-25 season**:\n"End the 2
 024–25 Season on a high note with three showstopping surprises—music f
 rom the back catalogs of much-loved composers that just might become your 
 new favorites. Kristian Bezuidenhout\, known worldwide as one of today’s
  most exciting fortepianists\, opens with Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No.
  4\; Gramophone calls his recording “one of the finest\, most deeply per
 ceptive and thrilling performances of [the piece] on record.” Next\, inc
 idental music from Mozart tells a stirring story of power\, betrayal\, and
  revenge. And finally\, Jonathan Cohen takes you to the carnival with a Ha
 ydn symphony nicknamed for dancing bears: ferocious majesty meets unexpect
 ed delight."\n\nMore about H+H:\n\nBoston’s Grammy-winning Handel and Ha
 ydn Society performs Baroque and Classical music with a freshness\, a vita
 lity\, and a creativity that inspires all ages. Called “one of the most 
 exciting ensembles of historically informed performances in the world” (
 OperaWire)\, H+H has been captivating audiences for **210 consecutive seas
 ons** (the most of any performing arts organization in the United States)\
 , speaking to its singular success at welcoming new audiences to this extr
 aordinary music\, generation after generation.\n\nH+H performed the “Hal
 lelujah” chorus from Handel’s Messiah in its first concert in 1815\, g
 ave the American premiere in 1818\, and ever since has been both a musical
  and a civic leader in the Boston community. During the Civil War\, H+H ga
 ve numerous concerts in support of the Union Army (H+H member Julia Ward H
 owe wrote “The Battle Hymn of the Republic”) and on January 1\, 1863\,
  H+H performed at the Grand Jubilee Concert celebrating the enactment of t
 he Emancipation Proclamation. Two years later\, H+H performed at the memor
 ial service for Abraham Lincoln.\n\n*Children over the age of 5 are welcom
 ed.*\n\n*Seating is first come first served.*\n\n*Groupmuse ticket buyers 
 will check in at Will Call under their last names.*
