'An absorbing and thoroughly entertaining evening... ' wrote Alexandra Hamilton-Ayres in her http://www.bachtrack.com review of Bristol Choral Society's 2012 Messiah performance'...it was as though Colston Hall had been wrapped in a giant ribbon for what can only be described as a Christmas present come early. '
Other audience comments included'completely superb' and'really amazing'.
An almost identical cast returns this year for Bristol Choral Society's renowned memorised Messiah, complete with Adrian Partington's'masterful rendition' and the scintillating playing of period orchestra Music for Awhile.
