Messiah by George Frideric Handel was first performed in Dublin in the spring of 1742. After a rather modest reception in London, the work was eventually regarded as a triumph and has become one of the Western world's most performed and loved choral works.

Messiah was one of Handel's own favourites. He conducted the oratorio himself a number of times, often adapting it to the occasion. Handel experts Malcolm Bruno and Caroline Ritchie are now completing the first published edition of the authentic original Messiah, which will premiere at the 2017 Bergen International Festival. Here Messiah will be presented as first conceived, as an operatic entertainment, with all the extended, virtuosic arias that reveal the operatic feel of the 1740s London stage.

The Bergen International Festival and Bergen National Opera present the premiere performance, created by director, designer and video artist Netia Jones, known for her originals stagings of classical works.

Four outstanding sololists, the early music ensemble Baroque Soloists and the vocal ensembles Edvard Grieg Choir and Cathedra are led by Bjarte Eike. Michael McCarthy, director of music at Washington National Cathedral is also known for his association with the Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter film.

"… the greatest composer that ever lived …"
- Ludwig van Beethoven on George Frideric Händel

Scenic oratorio in 3 parts Messias 1741, published by Malcolm Bruno and Caroline Ritchie, with permission from Breitkopf & Härtel.

English

Händels Messias ble først fremført i Dublin våren 1742. For resten av komponistens liv triumferte Messias som Händels epokegjørende mesterverk - det utviklet seg fra å være et oratorium for londonscenene til dagens høyt verdsatte korverk.

Malcolm Bruno og hans kollega Caroline Ritchie fullfører den første publiserte utgaven av det autentiske, opprinnelige Messias. Verket presenteres slik det først ble laget. Deres versjon vil bli publisert av Breitkopf & Härtel våren 2017 med alle de utvidede, virtuose ariene som avslører operafølelsen av 1740- tallets London.

Bergen Nasjonale Opera og Festspillene i Bergen presenterer premieren, iscenesatt av regissør, designer og videokunstner Netia Jones. Hun har en moderne tilnærming til verket, men tar oss samtidig med tilbake til Händels tid.

Fire fremragende solister, Barokksolistene, Edvard Grieg Kor og Cathedra ledes av Bjarte Eike. Assisterende musikalsk leder Michael McCarthy har jobbet med en rekke storfilmer, deriblant Ringenes herre-trilogien.
