Messiah by Candlelight
Featuring some of the best period instrument specialists in the UK, the goal of The Hanover Band is to give audiences a feeling for what earlier music actually sounded like when heard in favourable circumstances. With their gutsy playing ‘stripping decades of varnish from the score,’ as the Times says, Handel’s ever-popular Messiah will sound fresh and new.
George Frederic Handel composed Messiah in just 24 days. It is a carefully crafted masterpiece i n three parts with text by Charles Jenne
