About this event


Enjoy a new abridged version of Handel’s most famous oratorio in the evocative candlelit setting of St Mary le Strand, James Gibbs’ baroque masterpiece and arguably the most beautiful of the Queen Anne Churches.

This is a complete (but abridged) performance of Messiah, accompanied on the organ, and lasting about 75 minutes, without interval, giving concert-goers time to have dinner after the performance!
