Anyone who tuned in to the 'Classical Journey' on Tuesday 11th December last year will remember the amazing performance of Handel's 'Messiah' at St George's Church in Tiverton by - The East Devon Choral Society. (Mike Gluyas and Mike Brett were there making video and audio recordings, which we can enjoy on Phonic FM.)
The photos below are from the 11th December programme blog, which catalogued the extraordinary smörgåsbord of exciting music happening in just the one week.
There were two other performances of the 'Messiah' taking in place in Exeter on the same night. Jonathan Schrantz (who sang Mozart's Mass in C Minor with Lucy Bray in March last year) had come to lead a Messiah workshop at St Michael's Church, Mount Dynham, with evening performance, while the Exeter Bach Society were performing at St David's Church.
What an agonising choice to make! However, anyone who elected to travel to Tiverton for the evening would not have been disappointed . . .
