More About Hartland Music Hall
The Hartland Music Hall — one of the oldest buildings in Livingston County — serves as a venue for concerts, plays, weddings, church services and community events. Owned by the Hartland School District, the facility is available for rent through Hartland Community Education.
The building was originally built in 1858 by members of the First Congregational Church. But by the 1920s it had fallen into disrepair and was purchased by local philanthropist John Robert Crouse Sr., who renovated the building and donated it to the community as part of the Hartland Area Project.
Emil Lorch, dean of the University of Michigan School of Architecture, oversaw the conversion in 1931 that included adding column porticoes and a Kilden pipe organ, according the community education website.
The hall was added to the State Register of Historic Sites in 1980 and famously hosts an annual performance of Handel's Messiah each December.

What a wonderful tradition J.Robert Crouse started and the perfect place to perform it.The Music hall was converted from a small church to the Music Hall in 1932 and with the addition of the Kilgen organ began a tradition that continues today.The acoustics are perfect for for such singing performances.
