Dunedin Consort: Messiah
Join Dunedin Consort and their stellar cast of soloists this Christmas at St Mary's Cathedral, and start off the festive season as you mean to go on!
About Dunedin Consort: Messiah
It’s no surprise that Handel’s Messiah continues to draw audiences back year after year. There is nothing quite like it. Although the Hallelujah chorus has become the work’s calling card, Handel wrote every note to impress and astound his listeners. Its choruses are as grand as anything Handel ever composed, the solo writing profoundly moving, the drama powerful and compelling. Performed ‘the Dunedin way’ as Handel would have first heard it, with a small orchestra, a team of twelve singers and soloists who step out from the chorus, there are few more uplifting ways to celebrate the festive season.
‘Messiah is a hardy annual, but performed here – where every note and word really mattered – it sounded brand new.’ BachTrack
