About this event
“Hallelujah!” In 1741, Handel composed his great oratorio Messiah in just three weeks, and its message of hope and redemption has echoed ever since. Victoria’s magnificent Christ Church Cathedral glows with candlelight as the VS, local choirs, and four outstanding soloists bring this timeless story to life—a tradition that has sold out two years in a row! KNOW BEFORE YOU GO Concert duration: Approx. 140 minutes including one 20 minute intermission.
