Handel's Messiah - An Advent Calendar

The Messiah by George Frideric Handel is an operatic masterpiece that tells the biblical story of a coming Savior and King who suffers to redeem humankind. Considered one of the greatest oratorios ever composed, the Messiah's popularity endures nearly 300 years after its debut with annual performances at many of the world's top concert halls. Join us this Advent season as we draw upon the music and biblical lyrics of Handel’s Messiah to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Listen to the music of Messiah performed by The Falls Church Anglican Choir under the musical direction of Simon Dixon and mastered by Andrew Schooley. Daily Advent devotionals reflect on each song with a biblical text drawn directly from Messiah, a meditation written by gifted CSLI authors, and a colorful image for reflection.
