Bristol Bach Choir present an immersive performance of Haydn’s Creation, in which the vivid score will be enhanced by atmospheric image projection and creative lighting design. This unforgettable performance, which promises to enchant and beguile, will be a feast for the senses and the soul.
”When I think of God, I can write only cheerful music“ said Joseph Haydn. So when he turned to the greatest story of all time, his imagination simply bubbled over. With text from the Book of Genesis and Milton’s Paradise Lost, The Creation is filled with soaring melodies, blockbuster choruses and vibrant orchestral writing. Inspired by his trips to England, where he first hear Handel’s oratorios performed with huge choral and orchestral forces, The Creation is widely considered to be Haydn’s crowning masterpiece.
The Creation is performed in English.
