Handel Messiah
What better way to greet the Christmas season than by attending a performance of Messiah?
For more than a quarter of a millennium, Handel’s most famous oratorio has been one of the best-loved of all works in tradition of western sacred music. Voices and instruments unite in music of great beauty and emotion to narrate the Christian story, from the news of the Messiah’s birth to his life, death and resurrection.
Penrith’s resident symphony orchestra performs here with outstanding vocal soloists from the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, and with the combined voices of Penrith City Choir and Youth Choir, Academy Singers and Warrimoo Chorale.
Whether you are experiencing Messiah for the first time, or it is a familiar musical experience that you look forward to each year, this performance is not to be missed.
Book early to avoid disappointment, as our past Messiah performances have often sold out well in advance!
