Handel Messiah - 157 lossless recordings - Part I: 1927-1986

Due to the restriction of the 1337x torrent index I’m being forced to divide this project in three parts (1927-1986) – (1988-2005) – (2006-2022). In the aggregate, 157 lossless recordings of Handel Messiah. Flac/Ape in separate tracks, scans, score. Added BBC Record Review broadcast about the work. Enjoy!
