All The Angels: Handel and the First Messiah archiveUnravel the journey of Handel's Messiah, from its first, disappointing performance by amateur musicians at the Golden Falcon Inn Chester, a rarely documented concert which was overshadowed by the hugely successful first presentation in Dublin in Passion Week, and the seemingly insurmountable problems that face Handel at every turn. Exploring the relationships between Handel and actor/contralto Susannah, his servant Peter le Blond and librettist Charles Jennens, Messiah tells the story of how the most popular and acclaimed choral work in the world was born out of the most unpromising circumstances.
