Genres and styles : Baroque

Additional Information

The annual tradition of Handel’s Messiah by the Classical Orchestra of Montreal continues this year. The crypt of Saint Joseph’s Oratory will be occupied for the occasion, on Thursday, December 11, 2025, by the ensemble under the direction of its brand new musical director, Andrei Feher, as well as by soloists Jacqueline Woodley (soprano), Camila Montefusco (mezzo-soprano), Adam Luther (tenor), and Jamal Al Titi (baritone). Les Filles de l’île and Les Chantres Musiciens will join them to form the choir. I met with the young conductor Andrei Feher to talk about this Messiah, his first with the ensemble, but also one of his first as he conducted Handel’s masterpiece for the first time only a year ago.
