Oratorio in three parts for soloists, choir and orchestra by Georg Friedrich Händel edited by Mozart

Mozart’s German-language version of Handel’s Messiah is famous, though seldom heard. Written in 1789, at the request of baroque enthusiast Gottfried van Swieten, this profound arrangement of Handel’s best-known oratorio includes copious woodwind parts. Marc Minkowski and Les Musiciens du Louvre are acclaimed exponents of Handel and Mozart.

Their brilliant performance is combined for the first time with the art of Robert Wilson: a fascinating fusion of periods and styles on several levels.
