A performance of Handel’s Messiah by La Chapelle de Québec and Les Violons du Roy is always a cause for rejoicing. This year, for the very first time, Les Violons du Roy music director Jonathan Cohen will lead the celebrations. And he’s invited an extraordinary quartet of soloists to join him for the event.
G.F. Handel, Messiah, HWV 56
