Hallelujah! Handel’s Messiah isn’t just an oratorio, it’s a national treasure. From Ev’ry Valley to For Unto Us a Child is Born, and of course the Hallelujah chorus, everybody already knows some of the tunes, but to hear the whole thing performed live is pretty much as good as music gets. Baroque music expert Laurence Cummings and the full Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Choir storm the heavens tonight. For many, it’s an annual tradition. Why not make it yours?

A Species of Musick Different From Any Other: Handel's Messiah

Paul Kilbey, 1st November

“It is difficult in no common degree to write anew concerning The Messiah,”1 said the music writer Henry F Chorley in 1859. The piece was, of course, 117 years old at the time, and there has only been more written on this landmark composition since. Handel’s Messiah is not just a popular classic, after all: it’s also a hugely important work.
