Uses: Christmas
Scripture: Matthew 1:18-23; Luke 2:7; Revelation 12:1-5
From "Judas Maccabeus" comes a sacred reworking of one of Handel's most beloved melodic creations. Adapted for use at Christmas, the score overflows with a Baroque elegance, ideal for a holiday concert or worship service. Its brief performance time (under two minutes) makes it a wonderful call to worship. The accompanying chamber orchestration keeps in the style and delivers a sparkling option for churches with string resources. Bravo!
