Sydney Philharmonia Choirs: Handel’s Messiah
13 December @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm AEDT

Every other Christmas, the full forces of Sydney Philharmonia Choirs gather to revel in the grandeur and joyous optimism of our favourite oratorio: Handel’s Messiah. It’s a tradition that never grows old.
The musical experience is sublime – baroque splendour married to the power of massed voices and full orchestra. The setting is superb – Sydney’s most beautiful concert hall. And the spiritual message is one of transcendent faith and uplifting joy. Add a magnificent quartet of soloists and the stylish touch of conductor Elizabeth Scott, and you’re guaranteed a performance that will bring you to your feet – Hallelujah!
