Handel’s Messiah is one of those pieces which we think we all know, and then we sit in front of it and are once again wowed and reminded just what a genius Handel was. How many works have SO many great tunes? How many of them bear repeated listening, revealing new things each time? How many take you on a dramatic roller coaster encompassing rage, sorrow, joy, and jubilation? How many can still pack an emotional gut-punch even though you’ve heard them before? Messiah can.
In this pre-holiday treat Music Director Richard Egarr is back and joined by a top-flight roster of great soloists. Join us and be uplifted.

Ben Woodward conducts a massed choir comprising members of many of the south of England's choral societies, a huge orchestra, fixed and managed by Alison Holford, alongside Philippa Boyle (soprano), Andrew Tortise (tenor) and Felix Kemp (baritone).
