The Really Big Chorus presents the world’s most celebrated choral participation event – Messiah from Scratch®. This unique performance returns to the Hall on Sunday 12 November, showcasing more than 2,500 voices in this pre-Christmas Messiah.

Messiah from Scratch® is the most adrenaline-filled performance of Handel’s masterpiece you are ever likely to hear, and one not to be missed, with singers and audience alike leaving the concert buzzing with excitement. Performers outnumber the audience often by three to one; audience tickets are therefore limited, so book now for this utterly unique experience.

All money from programmes, advertising and sponsorship at this concert will be exclusively channelled to the British Heart Foundation. This is the ideal event to kick-start your Christmas celebrations: tickets would make a wonderful Christmas present and enable you and your guests to support a fantastically worthwhile charity at the same time.

The English Festival Orchestra will be conducted by Brian Kay; soloists will be announced in the autumn.
