The Royal Choral Society will return to the Royal Albert Hall this weekend for its annual performance of Handel’s Messiah which was delayed from Good Friday due to the pandemic.

Last Monday, as lockdown restrictions eased, choir director Lucy McLean posted a selfie from her first real-life practice since October 2020.
