Notes

Recorded in London at St. Mary Magdalene Church, Paddington.

Of all the inspired music in Christendom-Handel's immortal Messiah reigns supreme. The very dimension of its choral and orchestral scoring; the majesty of its soaring and lyrical message mark it as the highest form of oratorio ever conceived by a composer. The complete arias in this album have been among the best loved parts of the monumental work.

The complete deluxe four record set of the original manuscript of Handel's Messiah available on Alshire Audio Spectrum Classical Series Number ASC-4. The set includes the printed text to the Messiah and a biography of George Frederich Handel.
