Handel’s Messiah

/ 16 December 2011

This is the most interesting, unique, and avant-garde version of Handel’s Messiah that I have ever encountered. I picked up the first of 14 parts in a facebook newstream, intending to leave it playing the background as I was writing. But the staging is fascinating, and the story such an interesting contrast to the typical version, that I couldn’t tear my eyes away. Here’s the first part, the other thirteen are available in that stream.

(Parts one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen)
