The Arts Desk

One of the most beloved choral works ever written, Messiah has captivated audiences for nearly three centuries with its glorious choruses, radiant arias and moving storytelling. From the joyful "For Unto Us a Child Is Born" to the triumphant "Hallelujah Chorus", Handel's music combines breathtaking beauty with extraordinary emotional power.

Eight exceptional singers perform the from memory with staging devised by acclaimed theatre and opera director Tom Morris (Breaking the Waves, Dr Semmelweis, War Horse). With singers moving around venues and amongst the audience, the production strips away the barriers between performers and audience, allowing the drama of Handel's masterpiece to emerge with remarkable immediacy.

Accompanied by the musicians of the Wild Arts Ensemble on period instruments and directed from the harpsichord by Wild Arts' Artistic Director Orlando Jopling, this compelling production has earned standing ovations across the country. Combining world-class musicianship with vivid storytelling, it offers a fresh perspective on one of the greatest works in the choral repertoire, whether you know the work well, or are discovering it for the first time.

"Riveting and dramatic... The musical direction from the harpsichord by Orlando Jopling is fastidiously authentic — his excellent minimum-forces band of period instrumentalists embellish their lines and phrase beguilingly throughout."
Richard Morrison, The Times
