It’s Our Fall 2024 Fundraiser:
Help AMC in Messiah Sing-Along 2024!
All the members of The Arts at Ascension pay their own production costs to participate in the annual Messiah Sing-Along. Can you spare a modest $10 donation to help AMC be part of Messiah Sing-Along 2024 in our new home?
Soloists
Messiah Sing-Along 2024
The Third Annual Arts at Ascension Messiah Sing-Along moves to a new home at the North Scottsdale United Methodist Church.
It’s a free, family holiday fun afternoon, featuring soloists and choristers from The Arizona Masterworks Chorale and the North Scottsdale UMC choir, and the musicians of the Women’s Orchestra of Arizona — and the voices of everyone who loves singing choruses from Handel’s classic holiday oratorio “Messiah.”
In 2024 we’re delighted to present four outstanding Phoenix-based professional soloists in the program.
Come and sing along, or just sit back and enjoy the greatest Christmas oratorio ever. No rehearsal is necessary for singers, free vocal scores are available online!

The First Nowell:
A Masterworks Chorale Christmas
Fun for the whole family with holiday masterpieces , an audience sing-along, and the first Phoenix performance in over a decade of The First Nowell, an exciting medley of carols by Warren Cohen, conductor of the Phoenix-based MusicaNova Orchestra.
Be a part of it all on Sunday, December 15 at 3 PM
in the sanctuary at All Saints’ Episcopal Church
6300 North Central Avenue, Phoenix
“The carols that make up The First Nowell are a serious but lively bunch, including some lesser-known ones and new arrangements for the rest. In one, a drum sets our feet to dancing, in another both the American and English versions are sung at the same time. One is in a style reminiscent of bluegrass fiddling, and one sounds for all the world like a wayward Handel ensemble.”
– Warren Cohen, arranger

Our music library has a new home.
We’ve moved our music library from its old home at Ascension Lutheran Church in Paradise Valley to the brand-new LifeStorage center at Gilbert Crossing.
With your help, we can keep it thriving.
Maintaining our extensive library of over 15,000 copies of over 400 great choral works isn’t easy. Our Music Librarian Cheryl Burton works tirelessly to keep the library in shape and to provide scores to all choristers. But storage doesn’t come cheap! We’re asking for $2,500 in donations between now and June 2025 to keep the library in top condition.
An anonymous donor will match up to $500 in donations to the Music Library Fund made between now and August 31.
Our ongoing “Make Music Better” campaign asks you to support the Arizona Masterworks Chorale’s mission.
Our mission is to inspire and enrich our community through the power of choral music. AMC audiences experience the sheer beauty of sound and poetry in our ensemble – it’s a choral symphony of fine voices singing together.
Making music better means investing in the future. Please consider making a generous one-time or recurring donation, advertising with us, or sponsoring an event or artist.
Your generosity keeps our unique sound thriving in Arizona, and we thank you for your ongoing support.
