Guest: Kutlwano Masote- Conductor
In his oratorio, Messiah, German-born English composer Georg Friedrich Handel (1685-1750) gave humanity music with both meaning and artistic appeal. You would have to search deep in the canon of art music to find a work to rival Messiah in this regard and likely fall short. Like all iconic art, it carries mystery and legend. For example, why do we all rise to our feet as soon as the Hallelujah chorus starts, and why did Handel decide to premier this work in Dublin?
