In addition to a goodwill offering that supports future concerts, the choir is also collecting donations on Dec. 4 to support a local charity. This reflects a history of charitable giving associated with Handel’s oratorio. When first performed in Dublin in 1742, this original “Messiah” was written exclusively to support three charities: “..for the relief of the Prisoners in several Gaols, and for the support of Mercer’s Hospital in Stephen Street, and of the Charitable Infirmary on the Inn’s Quay.”
