Positioned between opera and theatre this powerfully accessible interpretation of Handel’s seminal work explores the drama and struggle of faith showing a bereaved community whose grief at the loss of their leader is transformed into hope through a narrative of resurrection. Inspired by early performances of the work which were staged in theatres and concert halls rather than churches including its first performance at Bristol Old Vic in 1782 it is a rare treat for connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike.
