Following a rapturously recieved performance in 2024, Cambiata Chamber Choir and Orchestra return to perform Handel’s Messiah, at the Church of Mary Immaculate Refuge of Sinners, Rathmines.
Featuring the famous ‘Hallelujah Chorus’, Handel’s ever-popular Messiah is synonymous with the Christmas season and is firmly fixed in the hearts of music lovers around the world. The work has a particular significance to Dubliners as it received its premiere in 1742 at Neal’s Musick Hall, Fishamble Street in the city centre, where Ladies and Gentlemen were requested to come without their hoop-framed skirts and swords to increase capacity, such was the demand for tickets!
Join us for a very special performance of Handel’s great masterpiece, Messiah, with choir, full orchestra, and a line-up of talented emerging soloists from the TU Dublin Conservatoire, under the baton of conductor Niall Kinsella.
No swords or hoop-skirts, please!
Seating is unreserved. Doors open at 7pm.
Paid parking is available at rear of church (entrance on Richmond Hill). Free on-street parking after 7pm.
