With some pieces, the name is enough. Handel’s Messiah is practically a national institution, and one of those rare works of art that transcends time, place and even musical genre. But who better to propel us into the Christmas season than Nigel Short’s vocal group, Tenebrae? Bringing their famed precision, panache and beauty of sound to Handel’s biblical epic is a thrilling prospect. Messiah is driven forward at pace by its wonderful choral writing, including, of course, that chorus.
