For our first major concert in 2023 and with the disruption of Covid behind us, we brought you Handel Messiah, probably the most popular of all oratorios.
Rendered musically in moving arias and rousing choruses, the oratorio foretells of His coming and His birth, through His life experiences such as His rejection and suffering, to His Death and beyond, as well as His influence on our own lives.
We were delighted to welcome back soprano Ruth Jenkins-Róbertsson who sang so movingly at our May 2022 Sage Gateshead concert. NCS combined with Hertfordshire Chorus with their conductor David Temple to perform Vaughan Williams Sea Symphony and James McCarthy’s Codebreaker which was commissioned by Herts Chorus and emotionally portrays the life of Alan Turing
We also were delighted to welcome back Elizabeth Hogarth as alto, Austin Gunn with his fine tenor voice and for Ben Noble, his first time performing not only for NCS, but also the bass role in Messiah, and boy, did he relish every moment!
