HOOGLAND / AMERSFOORT – On Saturday, December 19, 2026, SoliAmersfoort will celebrate its 115th anniversary with a special performance of Handel’s *Messiah* at the Sint-Martinuskerk in Hoogland.
Under the direction of conductor Paul Valk, the choir will perform this beloved oratorio together with the Promenade Orchestra, organist Harry van Wijk, and four experienced soloists. For SoliAmersfoort,
Messiah is one of Handel’s best-known works, and with its alternation of contemplative arias and grand choral sections, it fits beautifully into the run-up to Christmas. Of course, the famous “Hallelujah” chorus will also be featured. The spaciousness and acoustics of the Sint-Martinus Church provide a fitting setting for this music.
Soloists
Four Dutch soloists will perform in the concert:
• Maartje Rammeloo – soprano
• Florieke Beelen – alto
• Peter Vos – tenor
• Marc Pantus – bass
Together with the choir and orchestra, they will tell the story of Messiah. Paul Valk will serve as musical director.
