Handel Messiah

There will be an interval during the performance. Please disregard the contrary information in the season brochure, which went to print before this was confirmed.


The Philharmonia Orchestra is delighted to be joining forces with Leicester Philharmonic Choir, for this festive treat under the baton of Simon Halsey. Needing little introduction, Handel’s Messiah is laden with intensity in every bar as it embarks on its pathway from darkness to light.
