Händel: Messiah - For unto us a child is born !

George Frideric Handel was truly a ‘composer of the people,’ an ordinary man with an extraordinary gift for music. He infused everything he wrote with drama: his arias, vocal works, and concertos are filled with sweeping, powerful passages that linger long in the memory. None of Handel’s oratorios, though, have garnered more acclaim or fame than Messiah.
