Book Description

Messiah is George Frederic Handel's most enduring and frequently performed work. First performed as a charity concert in Dublin, Ireland, in April 1742, it became a staple fundraiser for London's Foundling Hospital and Handel's last public performance in April 1759, a week before he died. Nearly three hundred years later the music lives on, but many in our modern culture have lost the flow of the narrative that Handel is telling in his music. The Gospel According to George draws out the drama that lies behind this collection of scriptures about Jesus, the Messiah, using insights for modern readers into the text and its original context, and notes on how Handel interprets that text musically. The questions and applications in the "Beyond the Music" sections at the conclusion of each movement will lead you into a profound and intimate experience of this well-loved oratorio at Advent, Lent or any time of the year.An enhanced ebook with recorded music embedded is available from Apple Books.
