“Let there be light”: The Creation of the whole world in Haydn’s glorious oratorio.
A regular visitor to London, Haydn was inspired to write a mighty oratorio after hearing performances of Handel’s choral works. He tackled the biggest subject in the Bible: the creation of everything. The music is suitably immense, for a big orchestra, chorus and soloists. Three fantastic singers take up the solo roles while Kazuki leads the CBSO and CBSO Chorus to bring out every detail of this epic work.
Tickets £26-£62
