Haydn’s Creation, alive with a charming verdant freshness and a classical elegance, is his greatest choral masterpiece. The Creation’s ‘And there was light...’ is one of his most startling, dramatic and inspiring moments. Roger Norrington, a specialist in this repertoire, is joined by a classic line up of soloists for this celebrated oratorio.

What the critics say:

‘Norrington’s conducting was searchingly insightful, and the SCO’s playing often glorious in its colour and buoyancy.’
- THE GUARDIAN

‘Even aficionados of the SCO’s virtuoso capabilities gasped at the mixture of high speed and lucid articulation. It was electric.’
- THE HERALD
