    That was indeed a touchingly beautiful rendition of Handel's Hallelujah Chorus. It's always great to hear the entire work performed!

    I juuuust happen to have returned from accompanying my Dad to hear Handel’s Messiah at Hereford Cathedral (where he was boy Head Chorister in the fifties). We had prime seats near the soloists, too! I particularly agree with you that the thing that makes it so rich and full and vibrant is that the singers sing impassioned by the meaning and profundity of each word and phrase. Some of the other pieces made the biblical narrative of Christmas make my heart leap and the Easter ones brought out all the detail of scorn and hatred, of grace and mercy, and of victory and hope. I have The Messiah on CD but being there was a delight.
    I’d love to hear your observations on the sevenfold amen, too. That leaves you in no doubt that Handel has wrapped things up!

    I loved this! I especially loved that I could hear their pronunciation so well. Especially the consonants. That can get muddled in with the orchestra if not well balanced. Important! I remember singing this and I remember every line. Why? Because we rehearsed our butts off. Best times ever!

    Perfect description of a beautifull Halleluja! I sang it several times but never with the inspiration come from your words. New inscription from Italy!❤😊

    I always enjoy your videos but this was a special treat as I learned a lot more than I expected to. This performance was especially nice because it's not a thousand voices. I have heard Messiah done so many times with everybody, including the audience, singing. And I know people love to do that but you don't get to hear the piece as we did here as it was meant to be heard. Thank you. Oh, and I am really jealous of your rrrrrrolled r's.

    I've been singing Messiah since 2008 as part of Choral Society of the Moriches. I find 'Worthy is the Lamb' is the most difficult piece to sing as many phrases begin on the weak beats instead of the strong. I've found I have to memorize the music so that I can be looking at the conductor for tempo changes.

    i've been wanting to do a Messiah Sing forever, not that i can reach the soprano notes. i just want to be surrounded by the choir and sing the parts i can. doubt it will ever happen where i live, unfortunately

    @oxoelfoxo Před 6 měsíci +1

    If the Hallelujah chorus is top 2, what's 1?

    • @nickhiggsthesinger
      @nickhiggsthesinger  Před 6 měsíci +1

      Hard to say. It might take the #1 spot, but I didn't want to give a definitive answer. O Fortuna has potential, as do choruses from the B Minor Mass.

      do you have a fave B minor mass full version on CZcams? I've only listened to NBS@@nickhiggsthesinger

      it just occurred to me that Beethoven's Ode to Joy would also be a candidate@@nickhiggsthesinger
