    This is my all time favorite Christmas music. I'm surprised, however, at how many people don't know to stand up when this piece is being sung. The story goes that King George II stood up during the chorus at the Messiah’s 1743 London premiere. Nobody really knows the reason but a few stories go that he may have stood up to stretch his legs because The Messiah is 2 hours long. Others think that he might have been so moved by the music that he stood and in doing so the audience would stand up as well. At any rate, it is now customary to stand up during this chorus.

    I enjoyed the Sydney Choir’s rendition of Handel’s great work. This time of the year is when I miss going on the bus into downtown Salt Lake City for the Mormon Tabernacle Choir’s Christmas Concert. A great choir and orchestra can bring Christ’s spirit abundantly to those who’s hearts are open!

      It was composed by George Frideric Handel in 1741 it was performed at the Sydney Opera House. The only thing the opera house provided was a location.

    Georg Friedrich Handel left his mark on his time thanks to his intense and majestic compositions. In this vast fresco composed in 1741, Handel displays all the nuances of his consummate art of sound painting, recycling if necessary some of his Italian duets composed the same year. He drew his inspiration from the music of his native country, Germany, he was inspired by his numerous travels, particularly to Italy, and he was attached to the traditions of his adopted country, England. This oratorio is the subtle balance between the recitatives, few in number, the arias and the choruses contributes to the support of the dramatic action; the intensity is maintained, as is often the case, with great sobriety of means in the writing by virtue to the chord orchestration. His talent and this clever mix have made him one of the greatest composers still performed firmly in the prestigious operas. Many of the master's oratorios are still performed nowadays, but it is truly Messiah which left its mark on the history of music. Music accompanies life! *Lucien*

    Tears, shivers down the spine. I stand in awe of the wonder and majesty of the Lord our God and in great admiration and respect for Handel.
    The best piece of music ever composed.

    Great performance , the most incredible fact is that Handel composed this in 1741 and it is still being performed all around the world and it will be forever ! ! I do not hear any popular music from 282 years ago , that's the reason they call it classical music ! ! !

      You should delve into the history of this oratorio to see its full history. Was written originally for the Foundling Hospital in London, to support those infants who had no other hope of survival at that time. Lots of pieces to the history of this masterpiece of music…❤️
