A true highlight of the Sinfonia Smith Square Christmas Festival, this special performance of Handel’s Messiah brings together conductor Stephen Layton, the acclaimed choir Polyphony, and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. A stellar line-up of soloists—Hilary Cronin (soprano), Helen Charlston (mezzo-sporano), James Gilchrist (tenor), and Neal Davies (bass-baritone) —adds brilliance to this much-loved seasonal tradition.
