I'm flabberghasted that this UK newspaper refuses to acknowledge that Handel's most famous piece is 'The Messiah'.

Well, the paper was probably afraid of Muslim rioters followed by government thought police accusing it of hate speech.

I agree. So is “For the Glory of the Lord.”

I also like “He Shall Feed His Flock Like a Shepherd.”

It’s a wonderful piece of music, start to finish, both musically and theologically.

I was going to say “handel’s Messiah” too...maybe it’s the most famous in America?

"...sectarian turmoil by the ever-intolerant bags of phlegm on the left..."

RoFL!

Maybe the vandals stole the Handel.

Well done, a little subterreanean homesick blues on an Handel thread.
