The sounds created by ICU students, early music experts, and the magnificent organ resonate in the chapel.

The ICU once had a tradition of performing a portion of the Handel's Messiah at the Advent candlelight service, which was discontinued due to the coronavirus pandemic and other reasons. This tradition will be revived by the ICU students in a more complete form than before. This concert will be held in collaboration with experts in early music, using the brilliant organ in the chapel. The generous donations of many people have made this concert possible. Please enjoy our heartfelt performance with gratitude.
