On 2 January 2027, the RSNO will perform Handel’s Messiah at The Glasgow Royal Concert Hall. This concert features a full performance of the renowned work, including well-known pieces such as the Hallelujah Chorus. The performance will last approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes, including a 20-minute interval.
Handel’s Messiah isn’t just a masterpiece: it’s a national treasure. Ev’ry Valley, For Unto Us a Child is Born and, of course, the Hallelujah Chorus – everyone already knows at least some of the tunes. To hear the whole thing performed live is a life-affirming experience and today, with the RSNO, four world-class singers and our magnificent Chorus, every note will feel fresh. Whether this is your first Messiah, or your hundredth, there’s no more joyful way to start the new year. Recommended by Classic FM The running time of this concert is approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes, including a 20-minute interval.
