Product Description
Handel's Messiah is one of the most popular musical works of all time, and choirs around the world perform Part 1 of Messiah every Christmas season.
For Behold, Darkness Shall Cover the Earth and The People That Walked in Darkness are 2 movements that feature the bass solo singer.
It is rare to have a contrabass clarinet featured in an ensemble piece. The solo part could also be played by any Bb instrument, such as a bass or regular Bb clarinet. However, this is a great time for your contrabass clarinetist to shine.
These are 2 pieces that your audience will most likely not expect to see on your Christmas recital program. It will be a treat for them, and hopefully for your ensemble as well.
