This is a great classical piece but it is first and foremost a testament to the Glory of the Lord Jesus Christ, who has risen as the glorified Son of God Almighty and who seeks the salvation of all our souls, including yours. May the Lord reveal His Glory to this world and all who inhabit it. Amen
Handel and I plead you to take note of the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
I love Shaw and the Atlanta Symphony. However, I have some misgivings about this performance. The tenors are quite distinctly flat at some points and the basses are bellowing at top volume. Overall it lacks any sense of finesse. I suspect Shaw would not be too happy with the effort.
Robert Shaw is a god...he polished his choirs so nicely. This is a very clean cut recording for being over 200 voices - doesn't sound like 200+ soloists like most symphony choruses do.
@PLANOWESTWOLF Your incompetence continues to reveal itself. Dallas is better than Chicago (one of the "Big Five") AND Atlanta under Shaw??? Sorry, but Shaw was the best of the best, and so were his choirs. MAYBE they beat Chicago...
