- Title: United Kingdom: Mass Messiah
- Date: 5th December 1974
- Summary: Amateur musician Gavin Park had always wanted to conduct a mass choir singing Handel's 'Messiah' - so he hired London's famous Albert Hall for the night and advertised for singers. The result was two thousand voices, and a gala night for amateurs.WARNING:LOCAL MUSIC LICENCES MAY APPLY. Copyright laws covering the composition, arrangement and/or performance of music differ from country to country, and even from state to state within some countries. These range from limiting the law to specific circumstances - e.g. 'performances given by professionals to a paying audience' - to total coverage that encompasses everything from a professional performance to the most amateur rendition - e.g. 'spectators at sports events'. If in doubt we recommend that either the section containing 'Music' is deleted or that the sound level is turned down and covered with commentary.
