Handel's Messiah

Handel's Messiah is a culminating work of humanity. Its participatory interpretation is recurrent in many cities. In the participative projects there are choirs and singers added to the promoters. The Messiah of the Singers 2023 will be a participatory project, promoted by the Orfeó Ramon Llull.

In Mallorca there were Participative Messiahs, for Christmas, fifteen years in a row, from 2005 to 2019. Many were organized by the La Caixa Foundation. The others (2011 and 2012 and from 2016 to 2019) were promoted by Orfeó Ramon Llull. There were two (2011 and 2012) at the Teatre Principal in Palma and the others (2016-2019), at the Basilica of Sant Francesc. After the shutdown due to COVID, in 2022 the tradition resumed and a Participative Messiah was sung in Palma, in Sant Francesc (as well as a second edition, in Pollença).

This year, 2023, the Participative Messiah returns, with excitement, to the Teatre Principal. It will be on December 22, under the direction of the prestigious Fernando Marina, director, among other groups, of the 1830 Academia. A second edition is planned in Manacor.
