I really don't know about conducting, but I can tell he's really enjoying himself! He's carried away by the majesty of the music as is anyone who knows the scriptures. It's from one of the psalms, but I can't remember which one.
@1niftyjay The text is from Psalm 121 - the one that begins "The Earth is the Lord's, etc. This is also the chorus that inspired the favorite Christmas caroll "Joy to the World".
This chorus is my very favorite one in the entire "Messiah"! Lift Up Your Heads - Praise Be to God!
I'm muslim but God is God in every religion and this is glorious music that fills me with love in a supreme being that I hope exists. And that all this, this life on this planet and universe is more than a mere coincidence :S
