Kazuki Yamada conducts the CBSO Chorus and Orchestra in a live performance of Haydn's Creation at Birmingham's Symphony Hall, with soloists Carolyn Sampson, James Way and Ashley Riches.

鈥淟et there be light鈥�: The Creation of the whole world in Haydn鈥檚 glorious oratorio.

A regular visitor to London, Haydn was inspired to write a mighty oratorio after hearing performances of Handel鈥檚 choral works. He tackled the biggest subject in the Bible: the creation of everything. The music is suitably immense, for a big orchestra, chorus and soloists who will bring out every detail of this epic work.
