Messiah HWV 56

Approved

Halleluja-koret giver genlyd mellem søjlerne, og kirkerummet lyser op, når Randers Kammerorkester opfører G.F. Händels storslåede Messias. Værket indeholder en overvældende række af smukke arier og betagende korsatser, der er en stemningsfuld optakt til de kommende juledage, og som midt i decembers travlhed giver ro og tid til eftertanke.

Händel komponerede Messias i løbet af 24 dage, og da værket første gang blev opført i Dublin modtog publikum det med stor begejstring. Selv om tonerne til Messias i dag er næsten 300 år gamle, er de stadig lige så aktuelle og elskede. I løbet af december bliver Messias således spillet overalt i kirker og koncerthuse som en fast del af julens traditioner, og for mange er det utænkeligt med en jul uden Messias.

David Riddell dirigerer, og de fire vokalsolister er Signe Sneh Durholm, Sidsel Aja Eriksen, Mathias Monrad Møller og Martin Vilbrand. På korpodierne står Sct. Mortens Vokalensemble, Vocamanda og Sct. Peders Koncertkor.

Hallelujah choir echoes between the columns, and the church room lights up when the Randers Chamber Orchestra performs GF Handel's magnificent Messiah. The work contains an overwhelming series of beautiful arias and breathtaking choral movements, which are an atmospheric prelude to the coming Christmas days, and which in the middle of December's bustle gives peace and time for reflection.

Handel composed the Messiah over the course of 24 days, and when the work was first performed in Dublin, the audience received it with great enthusiasm. Even though the tunes for Messiah are almost 300 years old today, they are still just as relevant and beloved. During December, the Messiah is thus played everywhere in churches and concert halls as a fixed part of the Christmas traditions, and for many it is unthinkable to have a Christmas without the Messiah.

David Riddell conducts, and the four vocal soloists are Signe Sneh Durholm, Sidsel Aja Eriksen, Mathias Monrad Møller and Martin Vilbrand. On the corpodia is St. Mortens Vocal Ensemble, Vocamanda and Sct. Peder's Concert Choir.
