Following several acclaimed albums of Handel’s operatic and choral masterpieces, French harpsichordist and conductor Emmanuelle Haïm at last brings her fresh, expressive approach to Messiah. Joining her on a musically and spiritually uplifting journey for this long-awaited recording is Haïm’s own choir and period-instrument orchestra, Le Concert d’Astrée, with four of the UK’s finest Handelian singers - soprano Lucy Crowe, baritone Christopher Purves, counter-tenor Tim Mead and tenor Andrew Staples.

For this complete recording, Haïm opted for a more intimate Baroque sound, without reducing the power and impact of this perennial seasonal favourite. “I made the choice of four British singers, with a single countertenor rather than two altos – the configuration used in 1752 at Covent Garden,” she explains.
