One of my most favorite choral sections from the Handel's Messiah sung with a

special ease, grace, and nice choreography! Handel's music is uplifting and has

the kind of forward motion that makes the listener want to move with a sense of

joy! Thank you carosaxone for posting this unique rendition and to robertocasitenore for kindly sharing!

this video is one of the most toucheble version for this song.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. In spite of some people´s comments. Somehow the choreography makes singers to sing in a different way that sounds ever so new, fresh and wonderful....it is not modern nor early music, nor authentic nor old fashion. It is simply a new version, it is what every performance should be: a new version. But you need to listen to it without trying to hear what you want. Let it speak to you in a different way. You don´t need to look, just listen IT IS GREAT!

I liked they used the sign language as the hard hearing people should also have the opportunity to appreciate this beautiful music from Haendel. I did not get the stage in the middle, can anyone explain? Greetings from Peru.

I kinda like the more stately tempo. As a singer it makes things alot easier ;)

@liszt1776 agree totally, this is meant to be intense but this is simply too flat for taste. Having said that, I do love the setting and stage direction.

[liszt1776]

too slow, the intensity of the dynamics in this piece seem to have been compromised by the choreography. it might have been issues with the actual recording, e.g. the men weren't heard nearly as loud as they should be. it's just too tame for a jubilant piece.

[DizzyDerwish]

I  don't get it.

[nuvoleapois]

It's simply awesome... thanks for sharing!
