Le Messie est certainement le chef-d’œuvre le plus connu de Handel, mais c’est loin d’être le seul.

L’oratorio Israël en Égypte, décrivant les dix plaies d’Égypte puis les festivités en l’honneur de Yahvé après l’exode, est un véritable feu d’artifices musical pour le plaisir des amateurs de musique baroque et de chant choral : le chœur détient la part du lion dans cette œuvre où les choristes chantent à 4 et 8 voix, voire en formation à double chœur.

La musique, majestueuse et royale, est à l’image de l’Angleterre pré-impériale, emplie de verve et débordante d’exhaltation.

Messiah is certainly Handel's best-known masterpiece, but it is far from the only one he wrote.

The oratorio Israel in Egypt, which describes the ten plagues of Egypt and the festivities in honour of Yahweh after the Exodus, is a veritable musical fireworks display for the pleasure of lovers of baroque music and choral singing: the choir is given the lion's share of attention in this work, with the choristers singing in four and eight voices, and even in double choir formation.

The majestic and regal music is a reflection of pre-imperial England, full of verve and overflowing with exhilaration.
