Simply one of the greatest choral works of all time and back by very popular demand is Handel’s beloved oratorio, Messiah, as sung by the LA Master Chorale. Written in the early 1740s, composed in a mere 24 days and an instant success, Messiah continues to be the composer's most popular work and may well be the most performed classical work of all time.

“How well the Master Chorale sings these great choruses ... well articulated, textures always clear, and the spirit continually high.” LA Times
