Step into the grandeur of the season with George Frideric Handel’s Messiah, performed in the breathtaking setting of the Basilica of St. John the Baptist on December 5 & 6, 2025 at 8:00pm. Under the baton of conductor Christopher Gaudreault, the Newfoundland Symphony Orchestra and the Philharmonic Choir of the NSO present this timeless holiday tradition, brimming with passion, power, and Hallelujahs.
Featuring a stellar lineup of soloists—soprano Claire de Sévigné, mezzosoprano Tessa Fackelmann, tenor Angelo Moretti, and baritone Philip Addis—this performance offers both majesty and intimacy, perfect for first-time listeners and seasoned Messiah lovers alike. From the tender strains of “He Shall Feed His Flock” to the triumph of the “Hallelujah” chorus, this is a concert that lifts the spirit and stirs the soul.
