There is no doubt that Handel is an absolute classical music genius. I absolutely love his music.

Oh Lord our help in ages past Our hope for years to come

[@edwardgordon1160]

What Can I say? Just beautiful music all around. This is how some of our churches used to sound on Sunday morning. And I think our services were the better for it. All the best to the 16 Harry Christophers. Bravo

With the late James Bowman, fond memories hearing him singing Handel many time in the Wigmore hall.

I have always wondered why these anthems are not better known! Such wonderful pieces of music.

[@vargelisgeorge5384]

Handel is praising the Holy God Hallelujah

[@JyotiB70045]

I just hear one after another, so much soothing and wonderful music as Handel is one of my favourite composers.

[@vivienalcantara1187]

The first choir is based on the tune used in the anglican hymn O God, our help in ages past.

[@edwinotieno9189]

The original tune is Handel's. O God our help adapted the tune

[@mattyregelmaessig8654]

Early Handel at his best. Beautiful performance, too.

[@bobh5087]

The opera composer Handel certainly knew how to fashion some gorgeous and memorable melodies. ❤️ Does one hear the first bars of "O God, Our Help in Ages Past" in the opening chorus ?

[@ti-jesuadeleke5563]

Yup, heard it too. Infact, was what drew me to this particular anthem.

My choir performed this work in Nigeria in 2016 of which I was the conductor. There is no much different. We used organ and piano. Thanks for sharing.

[@otonnah]

As sound engineer, I would be carried out in an ecstatic trance.

[@stanbattle7436]

Bach had his cantatas, and Handel had the Chandos anthems.
