I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
Psalm 121
A night of inspirational music as the singers of the Opera Nova Project presented ‘Lift Thine Eyes’, a curated selection of Oratorio masterpieces. Set within the beautiful Sacred Heart of Jesus Church, St Michael Hospice, Santa Venera, this performance showcased the exceptional talent of the Opera Nova Project students.
The programme featured highlights from timeless works, including Handel’s Messiah, Mendelssohn’s Elijah, and Saint-Saëns’ Oratorio de Noël, among others. The repertoire and title take on a deeper meaning as these masterworks remind us that we are connected to a source of strength greater than ourselves. This performance is an invitation to pause and to let the harmony of song instil hope.
