Clinton er The Messiah was composed by George Frederick Handel in just three weeks from Aug. 22 through Sept. 14, 1741. It was first performed on April 13, 1742, in Dublin, Ireland, to support the Mercer Hospital in Stephen Street, said Callahan. The work soon gained the reputation of being one that fed the hungry, clothed the naked and fostered the orphan. The first performance consisted of six boys and 14 men. During Handels lifetime, it was never performed by female voices, said Callahan. r wanrems cost .jOllne Minimum of 3 Ad must run in conjunction regular Standard Examiner ad.
