As retellings of the Christmas story go, Handel’s Messiah is definitely one worth hearing... 

Originally written for Easter and featuring a series of much-loved classics - including For Unto Us A Child Is Born and the legendary Hallelujah! - Messiah was first performed in 1742 and had been much anticipated. Indeed, so large an audience was expected for its Dublin premiere that women who were attending were asked to wear dresses ‘without hoops’ in order to make ‘room for more company’...

Manchester Camerata here team up with Kantos Chamber Choir for a rendition of the work that should certainly get its audience in the Christmas spirit.
