In November, the Monteverdi Choir joined the Tonhalle Orchestra in Zürich as John Eliot Gardiner led them in two performances of Berlioz’s sacred oratorio. Then in December, the Choir reunited with the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique for two concerts in the UK - the first in the magnificent Ely Cathedral, and the second in London’s historic church, St Martin-in-the-Fields.

The concert at St Martin’s marked the beginning of our new artistic partnership with the central London church, and received glowing reviews in the press:

“The period instrumentalists of the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique excelled… And the Monteverdi Choir captured not only the spitting hatred of the soothsayers but also the hushed reverence of the shepherds — their “farewell” including one breathtaking crescendo that will echo in my mind well past the 12 days of Christmas.”
