Two of the North West?s leading choirs join forces to perform Walton?s magnificent Belshazzar?s Feast in what promises to be an unmissable concert.

The choirs will be joined on stage by the acclaimed National Festival Orchestra and baritone soloist David Cane, who is also Oldham Choral?s Musical Director. The conductor is Tom Newall, Music Director of Salford Choral Society. ?
