"Le Messie" de Haendel

On Sunday December 6, the Ensemble vocal de Saint-Maurice will perform Handel's "Messiah" at its Passion concert. One of the absolute monuments of the choral repertoire.

Composed in 1741 in just twenty-four days, this oratorio in three parts offers a veritable spiritual journey: the expectation and announcement of Christ's coming, his passion and resurrection, and then the hope brought to the world.

Since the composer's death, this work has traditionally been performed during Advent. Handel's writing is strikingly clear, with expressive arias, luminous recitatives and some of the most striking choruses in all Baroque music.

Under the direction - and tenor solo parts - of Charles Barbier, the Ensemble vocal de Saint-Maurice will sing with Lysa Menu (soprano), Raphaël Hardmeyer (baritone) and the Orchestre 7 Sed Unum (Anaïs Soucaille, solo violin; Daniela Numico, harpsichord and organ).

Unnumbered seats.
Tickets available online, at www.martolet.com, or from the Saint-Maurice tourist office.
