Handel's Messiah by Candlelight

Part of Christmas

This event has passed.

Bristol Ensemble and the Choir of Royal Holloway perform Handel’s ever-popular iconic work, Messiah, under the direction of Rupert Gough.


Soloists are drawn from the young choir, singing from different places around the auditorium, bringing freshness and vitality to the work’s virtuosic and lyrical arias.
