Handel's Messiah with Polyphony

Festival: St John's Christmas Festival

Christmas without Messiah? Not possible! But this is no ordinary Messiah...

Join Polyphony's "radiant young voices" and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment's "zestful strings" and "keen trumpets" with a brilliant line-up of soloists, all under the inspired direction of Stephen Layton and you will be singing and dancing all the way home.

James Gilchrist will "Comfort Ye" - Mary Bevan will enchant you with her rendition of "Rejoice greatly" - you will be moved by Helen Charlston's "He was despised" - and thrilled by the brilliance of Neal Davies and the OAE players in "The trumpet shall sound".

Book early!
