Messiah
Mozart made arrangements of several of Handel's oratorios for private performance, and his version of Messiah, with additional parts for woodwind and other alterations, was first performed in 1789. It is an extraordinary and beautiful hybrid of both composers' art. Sung complete and in English, this performance is recorded in the chapel of King's College, Cambridge. Presented by Susan Sharpe.
