Handel's Messiah

This is the grand-daddy of them all. G.F. Handel put not only the Christmas story, but the entire narrative of Christ's life, death and resurrection to music. This work will keep you listening from Christmas, right on through until Easter. There are numerous versions out there. The one I like best features Kiri te Kanawa, soprano, and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. It's on the London label.

Composer: Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Chorus

Conductor: Kiri Te Kanawa

Performer: George Frideric Handel, Keith Lewis, et al.

Ensemble: Sir Georg Solti

Label: Decca
Catalog: #14396

Number of Discs: 2
ASIN: B0000041Q8
