Greetings Messiah Chorus Members!
Happy New Year! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas Holiday season with extended family and friends.
First off, CONGRATULATIONS ON A TRULY MEMORABLE MESSIAH PRESENTATION! Your long hours of rehearsal and dedication to making our Jubilee Anniversary special produced one of the most beautiful and spiritually uplifting presentations I've been a part of during my 20 years with this great organization. I can only imagine the hearts you touched in ways none of us will ever know. Thank you so very much!
As you know, we arranged for a professional photographer to capture images from this historical event. And capture, he did. Tony Palmieri has posted over 600 proofs on his website. This will take a bit of time to load, but youíll want to scan them all as they are very good. Many of these feature close-ups of individuals or small groups from throughout all sections of the Chorus and orchestra, as well as the soloists. You'll likely find one or more that includes you and/or captures a memorable part of this year's presentation.
Here are the specific steps to follow to view the proofs:
* Click on Palmierisphotography.com
* Click on Lake Messiah Chorus
* Follow the instructions on the right of that page. At the end of those instructions, copy the link there and paste in a new browser
* Enter the password handel (all lower case)
* Hit "not now" when asked to save the password
* Read the extra guidance from Tony on the left for how you can view all the proofs
* Click the black lettering on the left of the screen "Lake Messiah Chorus"
* Start browsing all the proofs
* Double click on the proof if you want to see it larger
Copy the full name of the proof(s) you want and email them to John Pund

When we receive payment, one of us will immediately email you back a clean digital picture that you then own and can make prints, share with family and friends, or do with whatever you like. When we polled all of you about this at our dress rehearsal, nearly all of you indicated that you would likely buy at least one. There is a shot of the entire ensemble, including orchestra and soloists, standing just before we began. Tony is working on that a bit. I think that will be one most of us will want.
I hope you enjoy looking through the gallery of proofs. John and I look forward to hearing from you.
