Music events
La Boheme
La Bohème is one of the most romantic operas ever written. It tells the tragic tale of the doomed, consumptive Mimi and her love for a penniless writer.
Messiah (Handel)
Come along to SingSoc's performance of Handel's Messiah, one of the most well known and celebrated choral works ever written.
The Hallé
Marta Gardolińska, Music Director of the Opéra national de Lorraine, conducts this programme of conflict and resolution. With its beautifully broad ranges of tonal colour, tinged with the trials of the American Civil War, it is easy to see why Copland’s score for Appalachian Spring earned him a Pulitzer Prize.
