Incorruptible!

     Glorious are the Scriptural passages set to the music composed by George F. Handel! I have always delighted in listening to (and singing along with) Handel's Messiah at Christmas and Easter. My favorite recording is the breathtaking choral performance by the Cambridge Singers and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by John Rutter. This clear and absolutely marvelous rendition of the Messiah comes with a lovely summary of the history of its composition. Joyful and perfectly balanced, this recording of Handel's Messiah is a tremendous achievement and the best that I have ever heard. I will never grow weary of listening to this incorruptible masterpiece. The two CD set - Handel Messiah the Complete Work can be purchased @ Amazon.com.
