Unusually we’re playing just the one piece for our season ending concert this year, but what a piece of music it is — Haydn’s Creation!

“The Creation” is an oratorio written by Joseph Haydn in 1797 and 1798, and considered by many to be one of his masterpieces. It depicts and celebrates the creation of the world as narrated in the Book of Genesis and is scored for soprano, tenor and bass soloists, chorus and orchestra. Altogether this musical feast is around 2 hours long.
