Back in the late 1950`s at Kirkburton Secondary Modern my music teacher was a member of the Huddersfield Choral Society . I lived at Storthes Hall and went to Farnley Tyas Primary school then to Kirkburton

An uplifting classical work of art. Handel is an amazing classical composer and a deeply religious man.

Too fast knowing it should be enjoyed

[@GrahamPDavis]

What was the rush? Was the conductor rush’ing to catch a train? A far better performance from 1953 was 50 seconds longer . 😡😡😡

[@k99ward]

Too fast! God's word shouldn't be rushed but sipped and savoured like a vintage wine.

Not at all. How would you interpret a Handelian Allegro or vivace? The choice of tempo here doesn’t negatively impact on the voice or the choirs ability to convey the text. Perfect tempo choice and perfectly performed by choir and orchestra.
