Considered to be one of the most performed and highly acclaimed choral works in the Western music repertoire, "Messiah" is a collaborative masterpiece of George Frideric Handel and Charles Jennens.

This infamous English oratorio was crafted in 1741 by Handel who did the instrumentals, orchestrations and vocals while Jennens did the compilation of the the scriptural texts.

"Messiah” is an exemplar oratorio that narrated the sacred journey of Christ from birth, sacrifice until His resurrection. There were mixed emotions during its earlier days until multiple revisions followed. Eventually, it received massive financial success and even staged to a lot of places worldwide until it became a cultural musical piece. 

Because of its memorable impact, there were a lot of documented re-compositions and adaptations, and still is a significant masterpiece, an apparent trademark of Handel that is hard to forget.
