      Album Details

      Immerse yourself in the timeless masterpiece of George Frideric Handel with "Händel: Der Messias, HWV 56." This monumental oratorio, composed in 1741, remains one of the most celebrated works in the classical and choral genres, captivating audiences for nearly three centuries.
