GEORGE FRIEDRICH HANDEL [1685-1759]: THE WAYS OF ZION DO MOURN

HANDEL B-DAY!

Το The Ways Of Zion Do Mourn, ήταν ένας ύμνος που ακούστηκε στην νεκρώσιμη ακολουθία για την βασίλισσα Caroline. Ο Handel ολοκλήρωσε και παρουσίασε το έργο, διάρκειας μιας ολόκληρης πράξης ορατόριου, σε διάστημα 5 ημερών…Από την Monteverdi Choir και την Monteverdi Orchestra υπό τον John Eliot Gardiner, ακούμε δυο αποσπάσματα:
1. Their bodies are buried in peace
2. They shall receive a glorious kingdom

The Ways Of Zion Do Mourn was an anthem heard at the funeral service for Queen Caroline. Handel completed and presented the project, lasting an entire act of an oratorio, within five days… Here are two excerpts with the Monteverdi Choir and the Monteverdi Orchestra directed by John Eliot Gardiner:
1. Their bodies are buried in peace
2. They shall receive a glorious kingdom
