Handel: El Mesías, HWV 56 [4LP]

Handel's Messiah as you've never heard it: sung complete in Spanish. Bach Collegium San Diego and artistic director Rubén Valenzuela commissioned a new Spanish libretto from Tijuana scholar Mario Montenegro and premiered El Mesías as a binational, bilingual project reaching audiences on both sides of the border. The period-instrument performance keeps all the drama of the choruses and arias while giving the oratorio a fresh voice.
