The Hallelujah Chorus, For Unto us a Child is Born… It’s not hard to see why Handel’s Messiah is an all-time favourite, packed with instantly recognisable and distinctly hummable tunes from Britain’s favourite adopted German. Whether you’re an old hand or have always listened to this great work and wanted to join in, don’t miss the chance to rehearse and perform it with renowned chorus director Simon Halsey, in the magnificent surroundings of Symphony Hall.
