In collaboration with GBH, H+H invites you to join us for a special televised and streaming performance of Handel’s Messiah, an uplifting and joyous experience for a holiday season unlike any other. This triumphant concert is our free gift to the community, for all to enjoy. Handel’s Messiah, one of the most beloved holiday traditions worldwide, begins with the phrase “Comfort ye my people.” In a year where people need comfort more than ever, GBH and H+H join forces to bring alive this beloved holiday tradition. The collaboration displays innovative technology and the resilience of our musicians, even through a global pandemic. This is H+H’s 167th consecutive year performing Handel’s masterpiece.

Early Music America and The Handel + Haydn Society present a Black History Month conversation with leading Black musicians in the field of early music and historical performance practice.

For nine glorious weeks starting July 4, H+H celebrates the genius of Beethoven with an online festival of symphonies, concertos, choral works and chamber music – all performed with H+H’s signature freshness, authenticity, and unmatched virtuosity. This digital Festival is completely free, and new recordings will be released from now through the end of August.

Listen to (and watch) recordings of past H+H performances and clips about our musical offerings.

This podcast takes you behind the curtain of Boston's Handel and Haydn Society. Get behind the scenes scoops from H+H musicians and staff all about the music that you love.
