Handel: Messiah

“Hallelujah!” In 1741, Handel composed his great oratorio Messiah in just three weeks, and its message continues to reign forever and ever, enthralling audiences annually. Victoria’s magnificent Christ Church Cathedral will be the candlelit setting as the VS, local choirs, and four leading soloists share a story rich in complex emotions and human drama. Lift your spirits once again!
