Description:

Experience the Full Beauty of Handels Choral MasterpiecesWhile Handel left behind masterpieces in various genres, it must be said that his choral works possess a particularly special charm. Here, you can fully enjoy his choral works, including the Hallelujah Chorus from *Messiah*. It is also a rare treat to hear pieces such as Joshua, the original version of Behold, the Valiant One Has Returneda song known from *Judas Maccabaeus*. The soloists include Sampson and Blaze, familiar faces to BCJ audiences, making this a truly star-studded lineup. [Comment provided by King International]
