Performance Notes:
Handel’s oratorio, “Messiah,” tells the story of Jesus Christ and the creation of His Church. It is divided into three parts, corresponding to Christ’s birth, the Passion (the conviction and crucifixion of Christ), and the Ascension to Heaven. The famous “Hallelujah” is a song of praise concluding Part II of the monumental work.
This arrangement incorporates all the vocal parts and also enough of the accompanying orchestra parts to simulate a full performance. This may be used in conjunction with the voices as well. In the case that this is performed with a choir and keyboard (or other instruments), if wanted, sections may be omitted by the brass, both to avoid covering the voices and to add variety of sound. A timpani part is included, as well as a keyboard part (both optional).
For performance, care should be taken to articulate as marked. The tenuto and staccato markings are intentional and are included to indicate the articulation of the voices when singing their phrases. Generally, it is best to err on the side of a softer dynamic. Baroque music very quickly becomes ponderous when the volume level is not well managed. Lightness should always be a goal when performing music from this time period.
Lyrics:
Hallelujah!
For the Lord God Omnipotent reigneth.
The kingdom of this world
Is become the kingdom of our Lord
And of His Christ.
And He shall reign for ever and ever
King of kings,
And Lord of lords.
And He shall reign forever and ever.
Hallelujah!
