G. F. Handel: Messiah (Full Score Ed. Prout)

Beskrivning

The first performance of Messiah took place at the New Music Hall in Dublin on April 13, 1742. It was received with huge acclaim, the Dublin Journal proclaiming that 'Messiah was allowed by the greatest Judges to be the finest Composition of Musick that ever was heard'. By the time of the composer's death in 1758 Messiah had already attained an iconic status it has never relinquished.
