Throughout time, fleeing oppression has been a recurring tragedy consistent with the human experience. The tale of the Exodus inspired Handel to write some of the most dramatic music of his career, depicting the story in vivid detail from the increasingly unpleasant plagues visited upon the Egyptians to the Israelites' feelings of exultation and triumph in escaping their oppressors. Join Musica Sacra and our distinguished orchestra and soloists as we explore the Israelites’ dramatic exodus from Egypt in search of a better life.


Inspired by "Israel in Egypt", and its deep relevance to the refugee crises around the world today, we are pleased to announce that we will donate a portion of our ticket and merchandise sales to the International Institute of New England.
