George Frideric Handel
(1685-1759)

Messiah, Oratorio

 

 

As a golden thread tightened according to the time and the fashions, Messiah represents the emblematic oratorio in the Handel’s work. Written in 22 days, from August 22nd to September 12th 1741, his fame will not cease to grow. The new orchestration arranged in 1798 by Mozart will mark the starting point of the use of a growing formation, up to the performance of the Hallelujah by 10 000 singers and 500 musicians!
