Renowned English conductor Nicholas McGegan is set to grace Milwaukee from November 21-23 as he takes the helm of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra and Chorus for a rendition of George Frideric Handel’s Messiah.
During a recent video conversation, McGegan and I delved into the enduring appeal of Handel’s masterpiece, which has captivated audiences since its debut in 1742. Our discussion also touched on McGegan’s insights gained from working with 18th-century instruments and his personal highlights in Milwaukee. The entire interview is available on our WPR YouTube channel.
