[The second phase of the Arnoncourt Eternal Collection] On March 5, the first anniversary of the death of Nikolaus Arnoncourt, a master conductor who made a history. As his great legacy, we are re-releasing his representative masterpieces. It is said that the formation of Handel’s masterpiece oratorio in his last years was fatally related to his own blindness. Arnoncourt’s masterful performance is a masterpiece, in which he poured his passion into the work as if he could sense his anguish. Commentary, lyrics, and bilingual translation are included.
