Utah Symphony prepares for yearly Messiah Sing-In tradition at Abravanel Hall

Mya Constantino is a multimedia journalist for FOX 13 News.

Inside the Utah Opera Production Studios, soloist Sarah Scofield is carefully studying sheet music and hitting high and low notes.And it’s all for the Utah Symphony’s beloved tradition, the Messiah Sing-In, where thousands of attendees bring their scores to Abravanel Hall and sing along with an orchestra and choir.Scofield is a mezzo soprano and is one of four soloists who will sing in the oratorio for the first time this year.

Anderson, who has trained soloists for the Messiah Sing-In for 22 years, knows the process all too well.“The singers have one rehearsal with the orchestra and then the next thing they do is perform it in front of the audience. They have to be professional, pick up the cues from the conductor quickly, and make changes very fast,” Anderson explained.Messiah, composed by Handel in 1741, is inspired by the Old and New Testaments.
