This is the most impressive version of Händel I ever heard - not because it is korean, but because of the marvelous music!!! Does exist any cd of the choir???
These are the sharpest, best balanced, best recorded, and most wonderfully musical performances of Messiah I have seen, and I have seen a lot. I love Messiah and these vids of this choir and orchestra are simply the best. I would love to see this conductor in rehearsal. This level of performance arises only from a special vision of the conductor as well as amazingly precise execution by all the musicians. Thank you for sharing these with us all.
It's amazing to see and hear people of another culture whose main religion is not necessarily Christianity singing the music by a respected composer about our Messiah. It shows how universal and influential this music and Christianity it in our world. Glory be to God.
@themillenia about 30 percents of south Koreans(15million, and more than 80%of protestants and 50% of catholics are devour church goers, more than many European contries)are christian. and south Korean protestants denominations hold Joint service in easter every year. and the joint choir(5,000members)sing "Halleuyah"every year. and ther are so many " Messiah"oratorio perfomances all around the nation at the easter evening. so we need translated version. because it's not mere art performance.
Wonderful. So interesting to hear the precise pronunciation of each syllable. It walks the line of emothion but it works. The faces of the choir seem to emote a true enjoyment and appreciation of the music. Obviously much work and effort by all. Congratulations on the very fine results.
Again, I am blown away by these musicians....singers and orchestra. Beautiful! This is one of the best groups I have heard, from ANY country. Such gorgeous voices and precision in delivery. It is perfection.
@FoxyStealth The translation was done by the director, although it was based on the other existing version. Most of all, since Messiah is one of the most favoriate oratorio in Korea (or in the world), the translation continues to improve.
¡Fantástico! :D
