One of the major projects of the DSO season is Händel’s ‘Messiah’. Robin Ticciati considers the oratorio a musical meditation on the biblical text, the intensity of which he will attempt to enhance with a stage design in the Philharmonic Hall of Berlin’s Philharmonie – jointly with British director Frederic Wake-Walker.
