In the hallowed halls of Westminster Abbey, amidst the echoes of centuries, a profound musical experience unfolds. William Lisle Bowles, a renowned poet and critic, pens an unforgettable account of the first performance of Handel's Messiah in 1743.
With vivid prose and keen insight, Bowles transports us to that momentous occasion, capturing the awe and wonder that gripped the audience. Through his eyes, we witness the transformative power of music as it elevates souls and unites hearts.
