All the wonderfully diverse features of Baroque expression and vocal and instrumental declamation are present in Handel's Messiah. It is a sublime musical meditation which transcends simple narrative, going beyond the reality of Jesus to the mystery of Creation itself and Redemption in a three-fold reflection on the struggle between Light and Darkness, the redemption of Humanity, and the relationship between God and Man.

It was only natural that Jordi Savall record Händel's Messiah. His Water Music is already considered a benchmark and he has also signed countless landmark recordings of religious music.

Featuring La Capella Reial de Catalunya, Le Concert des Nations, Jordi Savall, Rachel Redmond (soprano), Damien Guillon (counter tenor) Nicholas Mulroy (tenor) Matthias Winckhler (bass).

This new album is the Christmas 2019 must have.
