SUMMARY:Mozart's Messiah
DESCRIPTION:For the first time in over 15 years\, Symphony Nova Scotia presents Mozart’s magnificent Messiah! Once a staple of Christmas concerts worldwide\, Mozart’s 1789 arrangement of Handel’s great oratorio is now rarely performed – but it remains a rich\, dramatic\, and nuanced interpretation that showcases both composers’ incredible genius. With added woodwinds\, horns\, and trombones\, and a variety of new classical colours and flourishes\, Mozart’s Messiah is a grand\, fascinating masterpiece\, and a chance to discover this beloved holiday favourite all over again. \nPerformance dates: \nDecember 21\, 2017 at 7:30pm \nDecember 22\, 2017 at 7:30pm
