One Performance Only!
All the glory of Handel’s timeless Messiah, but make it chamber music. This chestnut gets the one-on-a-part treatment – and the nimbleness and luminosity that affords. Salastina loyalists will enjoy the return of last season’s most popular Happy Hour guest, the effervescent Belgian soprano Laurence Servaes, alongside the return of stunning mezzo-soprano Clara Osowski. With Brian Lauritzen providing historical and emotional context along the way, you'll get to know the piece better than you ever have before. And yes: please sing along during the Hallelyou-know-what. Mulled wine reception to follow.
Salastina proudly presents this performance in partnership with The Da Camera Society in celebration of its 50th Anniversary Season.
