An Unusual Twist On A Holiday Favorite The Messiah by George Frideric Handel Arrangement by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart December 15, 16 & 17, the San Diego Master chorale and four world-reknowned soloists along with the San Diego Symphony will bring this seldom-performed arrangement to Symphony Hall. December 15, 16 & 17 Maestro Ling conducts the San Diego Master Chorale in this seldom- performed arrangement. Soprano Nicole Cabell is one of the four outstanding solo singers who will join us for the performances. Ms. Cabell, a California native, notes that San Diego has “a wonderful symphony” and goes on to say “I’m excited about singing Handel’s melodies over Mozart’s arrangement.” Here is some background on Mozart’s version of The Messiah, based on Eric Bromberger’s program notes. • Mozart re-orchestrated and conducted four major choral works by Handel: Acis and Galatea, Alexander’s Feast, Ode for Saint Cecelia’s Day, and The Messiah. • Mozart completed his re-orchestration of The Messiah in the spring of 1789 • The most striking feature of Mozart’s version of The Messiah is that it calls for a much larger orchestra than Handel used. • Handel himself conducted performances of The Messiah with greatly expanded orchestras, and these sometimes included horns and bassoons, instruments that were not in his original orchestration You can read Eric Bromberger’s complete program notes on The Messiah by visiting our web site at www.sandiegosymphony.org. handel Meet tHe ArtiStS Meet the four world-class soloists who will be performing with our symphony in The Messiah, December 15, 16 & 17.
