GF Handel Israel in Egypt HWV 54
Epic power and breathtaking beauty: Handel’s Israel in Egypt is a dramatic masterpiece that brings the Old Testament to life with dazzling choruses, vivid storytelling and musical grandeur.
From the haunting plagues of Egypt to the triumphant crossing of the Red Sea, Handel’s choral writing is at its most electrifying, with wave upon wave of sonic drama. This is Baroque music on a cinematic scale — bold, brilliant and utterly compelling.
