James Burton, the Hallé's former Choral Director, takes to the podium to conduct the combined forces of the Hallé, Sheffield's very own Philharmonic Chorus and a superb cast of soloists in one of the greatest English oratorios. This concert is a rare chance to hear a definitive performance of this great masterpiece, featuring three wonderfully fresh, leading soloists of their generation. 'This was a classy performance all round. The Hallé... demonstrated the hushed tone and perfect ensemble that indicate a world class orchestra.' The Times on the Hallé BBC Prom performance of Gerontius, 2005.
