King’s Lynn Festival Chorus teams up with period performance ensemble Noxwode Baroque for Handel’s most celebrated oratorio in the awe-inspiring setting of St Nicholas’ Chapel. The Chorus is also joined by a wonderful line-up of soloists: Bethany Seymour, Luthien Brackett, Jonathan Hanley, and Geoff Clapham. The dramatic oratorio portrays Jesus Christ as 'Messiah', from the prophecies of Isaiah through Incarnation, Passion, Resurrection, and to His ultimate glory-seat in Heaven. A fond favourite of audiences and musicians alike, no Christmas season is complete without it!
