Stephen Bell conductor
Matthew Hamilton Hallé Choir director

Hallé Pops Associate Conductor, Stephen Bell, opens the summer season with Top of the Classics, a concert featuring some of the most popular and best loved pieces to have reached heady heights in the Classical Charts. From Handel’s stately Coronation anthem, Zadok the Priest, and the dramatic opening chorus of Orff’s Carmina Burana to Karl Jenkins’ mathematically harmonic Palladio and Elgar’s spine-tingling Nimrod, this promises to be a true chart topper of a concert.
