Aarhus Symphony Orchestra presents Handel's Messiah, one of the most beloved works of the Christmas season, with chief conductor Dmitry Matvienko on the podium. The performance moves from the Hallelujah Chorus to the soloists' arias and the choir's hymns, bringing one of Western music's great narratives to life.
Matvienko has long wanted to conduct this work, and he describes it as a meditation on vulnerability, hope and renewal. Four soloists join Vokalensemblet GAIA: soprano Clara C. Thomsen, alto Catriona Morison, tenor Julian Hubbard and bass Neal Davies.
