Christmas Concerts 2018
It’s Christmas! …and there is definitely something for everyone with the stockingful of treats that we have in store this year. From films on the big screen accompanied by live orchestra (The Snowman and Casino Royale) to concerts where even Father Christmas himself makes an appearance (Christmas Family Concert); concerts showcasing the vocal talents of the Hallé’s family of choirs (Handel’s Messiah and the Carol Concerts) and the talented guest singers from stage and screen (Christmas Extravagaza with Noah Stewart and a celebration of ABBA!) to the traditional Viennese celebration with soprano Joanne Lunn, a soloist whose voice has been described as ‘spun gold’ (New Year in Vienna).
Christmas just wouldn’t be Christmas without a festive Hallé concert at The Bridgewater Hall. Come and join our celebrations!
