The sudden change in tone near the end has got to be one of the most theologically significant moments in all of Handel's Messiah. It is only when our iniquity is laid on Him that we feel sorrow over it. It's the main reason why this movement is my favorite.
Love these postings. One suggestion? I would imagine many like to sing along (or learn along) with the score. If you were to switch the slide to the next page about 1-2 seconds earlier it helps with singing right notes on the following pages. Everyone of us is capable of seeing what's coming at then end of a phrase and memorizing it so that we can anticipate what is coming next. Thanks so much! Blessings.
a guitar player! it is a triad missing the 5 with a 9,10, and 7 added, it isn't constructed harmonically though, but the result of following the strict rules of counterpoint, linear-oriented not vertical and chordal. pretty fascinating, much music from the same period has "modern" harmony, sometimes even bringing to mind broadway show tune style! search bwv 1 through 200 and you'll find examples, and much interesting stuff
