9 June 2025 The audience for the final concert of the International Concert Season were treated to a marvellously uplifting performance of Haydn’s joyful Creation with Sheffield Philharmonic Chorus and the Halle under the enthusiastic baton of Matthew Hamilton. Listeners leapt to their feet as the final tumultuous chord died away, having been treated to rousing choral and expressive solo singing and of course wonderfully exuberant playing by the City Hall’s Resident Orchestra.
