You will gain clarity on your objective, uncover potential obstacles, and develop a personalized plan to make your goal attainable. We will address what’s standing in your way and set you up for success in the year ahead!
Consistency is key to turning goals into achievements. In this follow-up session, we will check in on your progress, discuss what’s working, and identify areas where adjustments are needed. You’ll walk away with actionable strategies to stay on track and keep moving toward your goal—no matter what challenges arise! Sign up for both sessions separately–March 4 and April 1.

The MESSIAH SING has a more relaxed environment than our musical performances. All one needs is a love of choral music and a willingness to have a fun afternoon of singing led by Maestro Knapp!
This iconic oratorio, composed by George Frideric Händel in 1741, continues to captivate audiences worldwide with its profound beauty and timeless message. Händel’s Messiah is a monumental work that transcends the boundaries of time and culture. Renowned for its majestic choruses, stirring arias, and uplifting spirituality, this masterpiece remains a cornerstone of the holiday season and a cherished tradition for music lovers everywhere.
Whether you’re a singer or a classical music aficionado our annual sing-ins are for you! This is a great opportunity for all singers to join the chorus for the day; or for classical music lovers to come enjoy an afternoon of listening to the beautiful music of Händel!
Stellar vocal soloists include Michelle Trovato, soprano; Alexa Devlin, mezzo-soprano; Nicholas Simpson, tenor and Hans Tashjian, bass-baritone. The very talented Linda Sweetman-Waters, is the organ accompanist.
There is a $20 suggested donation at the door to attend/sing. You may bring your own music or borrow a score at the door. In the spirit of generosity as demonstrated by Händel’s lifelong support of the UK’s first children’s charity, we will donate proceeds received at the door to ARC – Association of Religious Communities which facilitates interfaith cooperation to enhance the quality of life in the greater Danbury, CT community. It will be a great way to enjoy beautiful music and support a local organization that has an important mission, too!
If you enjoy the magnificent music of Händel, come sing with us or sit and listen to one of the greatest choral works of all time. One way or the other, you’re in for a very special experience. From the exhilarating “Hallelujah” chorus to the poignant “Amen” finale, everyone in attendance will be swept away by the emotional depth and musical brilliance of Handel’s composition.
