“Although often sung in the run-up to Christmas, Messiah was in fact first performed at Easter. Along with our wonderful choir there will be some outstanding soloists and orchestra, it will be a very enjoyable evening - do come and listen tomorrow, tickets can be purchased on the door at St Wilfrid's.”
Solo roles are taken by: Eleanore Cockerham, Soprano; Camilla Seale, Mezzo; James Micklethwaite, Tenor; and William Kyle Bass. Alex Kyle will conduct the performance.
