From December 10 to 13, 2025, the New York Philharmonic presents Handel’s Messiah at Wu Tsai Theater, David Geffen Hall—a masterwork of spiritual grandeur, musical brilliance, and timeless emotional resonance.
Presented by Gary W. Parr, this performance features a world-class cast of soloists—including soprano Amanda Forsythe, countertenor John Holiday, tenor Nicholas Phan, and bass Kevin Deas—with the chorus of Music of the Baroque, conducted by the acclaimed Jane Glover, returning after her lauded NY Phil Messiah that was hailed as “superb” by The New York Times.
