Nothing says Christmas like Tafelmusik’s
Messiah! A moving, often joyous reflection on the life of Christ, Handel’s oratorio surges with emotion, drama, and poignancy.
Performed in the style and spirit of the composer’s own productions, Tafelmusik’s
Messiah “radiates brilliance and energy, along with an emotional depth that fully enhances the work’s expression” (
AllMusic).
Messiah’s core message of good will, hope, and humanity resounds as eloquently today as it did in 1742.
