The conductor and soloist share their insights into the composition and performance of Handel’s oratorio, ‘Messiah’. The last time this choral piece was performed occurred late last year in Sitiawan, Perak. So folks in the Klang Valley are in for a treat. More so for students who are studying ‘Messiah’ as part of their GCSE or IB syllabus; they will not only be able to learn from the discussion but also experience the performance itself.
