What passion cannot music raise and quell! Richard Townsend states "[Handel] was par excellence, a showman of the "Big Tune". In the famous Arrival of Queen Sheba (track 1), the strings describe the excitement of the occasion". This compilation CD brings together the greatest performers of Handel"s music as well as some of his most well known works from the Messiah. The CD, its case and the 6 page insert are in pristene conditon. This is from my private collection.
