THE CREATION by Haydn

10 Jan '10 | Barbican

Haydn's oratorio tells the story of the creation of the world as depicted in the Books of Genesis and Psalms, and in Milton's Paradise Lost. The writing in this choral masterpiece is full of wonder - Haydn's depiction of the creation of light is particularly heart-stopping - and the famous choruses include "The Heavens are Telling".

The concert is in association with The Art Room, a charity that offers art as therapy to young people who are marginalised or disengaged from education, or have particular social or learning needs.

"Choral singing breathtaking in dignity and beauty" - The Guardian on Crouch End Festival Chorus
