In this day of of worldwide suffering and loss, this song is for all faiths and none. For ever and ever. The message is to start being kind to each other and realise that all nations will bow to each other and help. Maybe governments will start thinking about the people of the world and Money is a secondary thing. May Your God go With you. Always.

[@wildmagicloon]

Really excellent all around, and I appreciate the solid performance by the trumpeters. They are producing all notes without the aid of valves, just air support, subtle tongue and embouchure shifts, and a few small holes for perfecting intonation. How wonderful that we live in a time when the almost-vanished art of playing the natural Baroque trumpet has been revived.

"... according to various experts, there is no truth to this story. In fact there is no evidence King George II was even in attendance at the London premiere of Messiah, and it is unlikely the newspaper writers that were in the audience would have overlooked mentioning a royal presence. The first reference to this story was a letter written 37 years later."

The story, possibly apocryphal, is that his man-servant came in and found Handel weeping while he composed the Hallelujah Chorus. Asking Handel what was wrong he is said to have replied that he had seen the gates of Heaven as he was writing the chorus.

[@rkwittem]

It amazes me to this day that Handel could have written something so powerful with only a few singers, some strings, 2 trumpets and timpani. Ingenious.

[@stumpypetros2685]

This year in December, is the 80th performance of the Messiah at the Sydney Town Hall using the same format as Kings College. And Messiah is always something special to look forward to. Not as austere as Kings College; but the organ is the largest in southern hemisphere and when installed, the world for a little while. Ive sung in the choir for the last 3 years. They need Council permission to play the large pipes because of the strength of the vibrations! For Hallalujah and the Amen all stops are pulled out and its amazing. The 400 strong choir only just makes it over the organ.
