From the review

"...a vigorous performance which many in the audience seemed to like."

"The Hall of University House was filled to overflowing..."

- W. L. Hoffmann, Canberra Times 24 December 1977

Memories of the performance

Bob Haas sang bass. I cannot remember the other soloists, but Margaret Sim says she wasn't the soprano. It was a great experience for the choir and the audience. Bryan Dowling's tempi were exhilarating and made this the most enjoyable performance of Messiah I ever took part in.
