The following reviews are from a first time concert goer and someone very familiar with the work.
"That night, I learned so much about the range of sound the human voice could produce; from the earthy low notes to the angelic highs. The well-oiled choir sang together seamlessly, with harmonies so intricate I had chills."
Cayla-Fay, 2020

"I have sung Messiah several times and heard it many more times before but NEVER LIKE THAT!!! It was absolutely brilliant. It has opened up a whole new perspective on the work. I have a new appreciation of what can be achieved."
Pam, 2019
