a chamber Messiah - the final countdown & BBC radio 3

27/11/2014

We are very excited to be returning to St John's Smith Square in London to perform our trademark 'chamber Messiah'. Following last year's Christmas Oratorio (see video below), we're back at St John's due to popular demand.  In the words of Handel scholar Dr Ruth Smith, "it bears repeating every year, it should become an institution." 

We find that performing this work 2-to-a-part (with the singers taking the solos as well as the choruses), without conductor and from memory makes it an absolutely exhilarating experience.  This year we are also collaborating with Tony-nominated Globe Theatre director Tim Carroll to bring the piece even closer to our audience.

We would love to see you at St John's on Friday 5th December at 7pm.  There are still a few of the best seats left.  Book here or on +44 207 222 1061. Halleluyah!

Aldeburgh Music CEO Roger Wright's Britten Weekend blogpost

After coming to our final Open Session, as well as all the other events that were on over Aldeburgh Music's Britten Weekend last month, CEO Rogert Wright wrote this great blogpost, which contains some good photos from our event.

We had a wonderful time in Aldeburgh, with more than two weeks in the rehearsal studio with a skeleton but full-size set and plenty of opportunity to experiment.  We are now a lot further with the concept for the show in Wilton's Music Hall next November, for which we are still fundraising - please get in touch if you think you could help.  Watch this space for a short film about the Residency soon...
