The choir have recently hit their fundraising target, which means the March performance of Handel's Messiah can now go ahead as planned.
The choir celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2021 and hopes to mark it in style with a sell-out performance of Handel’s Messiah on Saturday 26th March at All Saints Church in Eastbourne. The Choral Society has a proud tradition of regular performances in Hailsham and the local area. After such a difficult time during the past two years financial help was needed to ensure the success of the anniversary concert.
The performance of Messiah, with full orchestra and soloists from the area will provide vital support to some of the many local professional freelance musicians who have lost their livelihood during the Covid restrictions. Crane & Co are delighted to be providing sponsorship to the choir that has helped contribute to the performance going ahead.
