“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.
Soloists from Samling Scholars and Samling Academy join Royal Northern Sinfonia and Chorus for this year's performance of Handel's Messiah at Sage Gateshead.
