Free Concert and Open Sing: Handel’s Messiah

Handel composed the Messiah in 24 days during the year 1741 and this famous piece has been performed ever since. The intention of the words sung during this piece are to evoke the “Mystery of Godliness”, using extracts from the King James Bible, and from the Psalms.
