Handel is the greatest and most ablest composer of all time, to him I bow one knee. Ludwig Van Beethoven

[@voguepenft]

Each soloist, chorus, and the orchestra perform brilliantly. For me this performance is better than other ones can be heard on youtube.

[@lincolnramones9081]

Always love Handel messiah either watching live concert or watching on you tube ❤

[@markterry4317]

What a magnificent performance! Beautiful singing from both choristers and soloists and a lovely balance between the orchestra and singers. Well done! I thoroughly enjoyed this performance of Handel's classic masterpiece

[@bradbackauthor9940]

It's AMAZING that it only took Handel 24 days to compose the "Messiah"!!!

[@KSfan4ever]

This is a wonderful performance of Handel's masterpiece. Bravo to the chorus, orchestra, soloists and conductor! I always appreciate it when the soloists are able to sing with precise English diction, especially in this particular oratorio, as well as avoid unnecessary and distracting body movements when singing. Three of the soloists were successful in this regard. I especially enjoyed the lovely vocal timbre, pure vowels, and elegant singing of the handsome CT Alexander Chance, the gorgeously sung arias of soprano soloist Julia Doyle and the rousing, exciting rendition of "The Trumpet Shall Sound" by bass soloist, Roderick Williams.

[@margitdiehl7258]

Ein wunderschönes Oratorium, mit so einer guten Intonation gesungen und gespielt. Die Akustik ist sehr gut. Es ist erhebend, berührt mein ❤️. Ich hätte nicht gedacht, dass ich heute ein Live-Konzert miterlebe. Halleluja, Halleluja,Halleluja🥰 Danke 😊 an das gesamte Ensemble, zum Lobe unseres Schöpfers🙏💓🙏

Dankeschön!

[@karlheiden1168]

Das relativ geringe Ensemble der Ausführenden bringt die musikalischen Feinheiten dieses Meisterwerks erst so richtig zur unerwarteten Geltung. Alle Mitwirkenden sind vom Anfang bis zum Ende total gefordert und unterziehen sich dieser Aufgabe mit überraschender Bravour: Dafür sei ihnen samt und sonders besonderer Dank eines begeisterten Zuhörers aus Tirol ausgesprochen, der in seiner Jugend selbst als langjährig aktiv Ausübender bei den "Wiener Sängerknaben" diese überragende Leistung richtig einzuschätzen weiß. Bravo!

[@davidrawls2673]

Ich bin ein Jahr zu spät, aber das ist großartig. Erhaben. Ich liebe es, wenn der Dirigent so gut mit den Darstellern verbunden ist.

Esplendida interpretación.Muy digna en la orquestacion y en los colores del oratorio. Los cantantes estan muy bien, magnificos. Me ha gustado la pieza en cámara por la priximidad que transmite. Muy buena!. Gracias por CV ompartir este Messiah tan próximo y hermoso

[@pawewiszniewski3049]

Alexander Chance is really the best, although everyone has performed too little of the oratorical artistry of the performance for the audience. this is not a studio recording. A temple oratory requires at least a little dedication and spirituality. But the artists' diction is perfect and forces us to reflect on the history of Jesus, our Savior. Congratulation, and a big thank you!

[@acratone8300]

And for those who don't know Alexander Chance (counter tenor) is the son of famous counter tenor Michael Chance who has sung in performances of many of the great maestros, including John Elliot Gardener.

My benchmark for any Messiah is the couplet of 'and He shall feed his flock/come unto me all ye that labour'. The counter-tenor is delightful, but the soprano, too many flourishes....

[@MatthewBluefox]

Is Alexander Chance related to Michael Chance, another famous countertenor? Also ... 42:49 ... wow! Purrfectly sung and clean as a whistle!

[@colinlambert882]

Of course! His son! Looks as if he is already developing an equally successful international career. What do you record when your dad has such an extensive catalogue?

[@MatthewBluefox]

@@colinlambert882 Thankies for the information! :)

[@maryflannery6805]

An optical illusion beginning 9:50 one of the male choristers appears to have his hand on bass in front while singing 'And the Glory of the Lord'. It is of course the hand of the bassist. Small picture gives the odd impression for just a second when arm and hand appear to belong to the chorister. 😅

[@williambattaglini2198]

The trumpet sa il Sound😂😂😂

[@colinlambert882]

Great interpretations and tempi, excellent baroque band and soloists. The choir was slightly underpowered & didn’t know the work that well, so had their heads buried too much in their scores and they would have benefited from a session with a English singing/diction coach to place their vowels more clearly and accurately and improve their attack.

[@williambattaglini2198]

A scanso di equivoci, ho cantato il Messia per diversi anni come corista, ero un baritono. Ma mi sono dilettato anche come controtenore... Non professionalmente 🤐🤐🤐

핸델 주님께서 주님을 찬양하십니다. 한국 핸델교 교인 200만명은 음악의 메시아이신 핸델 주님을 찬양합니다. 핸델 주님이시여 인류에게 메시아를 남겨 주셔서 감읍합니다. 핸델 주님 57세의 전성기에 성령충만의 결정체를 지금 한국 핸델교 교인들은 만나 봅니다.

[@williambattaglini2198]

Capitato per caso... Niente male, sto ascoltando or ora il coro e i solisti, per ora un plauso al controtenore, pulito senza strafare. Mi correggo, una spanna sopra gli altri.

[@bhami]

Schäfer's English is mostly superb. There must always be certain compromises between spoken vs. sung English. I agree with, e.g., making short "u" more open; more like short "o". However, I must protest when he sings long "i" like short "o". Sorry, but long "i" really must be a diphthong: "highway" must be sung "HAH-ee-weh", not "HAH-weh". Interestingly, I do not notice this issue in Chance's singing.

[@colinlambert882]

Not used to the sound of a counter tenor? I thought a strong quartet of soloists, who knew the score far better than the choir.

thanks for sharing. wonderful rendition of my favorite piece of all the music on this planet. teqnically I have just little issues to say but I won't say them this time. It dosen't worht it. graet work everybody. although. the 1st trumpet. I know there are a lot of rest and his participation is little compared to the rest of the players, nevertheless. you should show respect not just for your fellow artists but for the place you are in. A church. a place of pray. crossing your arms and bending the head as sleeping is disrespectful.In the other hand great posture and behavior form 2nd trumpetist; it's like RIGHT WAY/ AND WRONG WAY to sit in a concert. despite this kind of demeanour the whole performance was delightful. congratulations to all. Artists, director, producers and camera director. P.S. I would very much like a more vivid performance form de countertenor. A little more of feeling, a little more human wormth maybe?.
