Händel ist für mich der grösste Komponist der je gelebt hat.

Judas Maccabaeus is sometimes regarded as Handel's second best oratorio. I would like to draw your attention to some of Handel's other great oratorios. Hercules, Semele, Alexander Balus, Solomon and Theodora are masterworks that should not be forgotten. And don't forget the other great stuff, like Acis & Galathea, L'Allegro, Dixit Dominus, Alkexander's Feast, Ode for St. Cecilia's Day and so on. Ok?

@achantus1 So what is regarded as his best oratario?

[achantus1]

@cousinjk All things considered, It must be "Messiah". And that is what most people will say. Handel himself seems to have regarded "Theodora" as his best. As with all things, It's ultimately a matter of personal taste. But "Messiah" is without doubt the most popular.

This is so good even in my office I continue to praise the Lord almighty. Handel is among the greatest composer this World had for centuries!!!

How blessed he was to be able to sit down and alow this to flow from his mind, onto those sheets of paper all that time ago!! No electonic synths or computers to aid in his quest for perfection... Just shear genius

This recording by King is very good and I also have the version by Charles McKerrias. Handel's Saul by Gardiner is a romantic/tragic piece and Israelis in Eygpt by Preston is inspirational. All three have magnificant choral pieces. Great to listen to when driving alone on deserts and mountains and no radio signals.

Yeah, Judas Maccabaeus is one of my favorites Handel's Oratorios too. And this recording is very good, except maybe the tenor voice which is a little weird in my opinion.

You can find others parts of this Oratorio in you tube, uploaded by others youtubers.
