Handel’s oratorio Judas Maccabaeus was composed in a period of not much more than a month in 1746. As with the famous Messiah, use was made of previously composed material and indeed See, the Conquering Hero Comes! was grafted from another oratorio about Joshua. This arrangement of See the conquering Hero Comes will bring a great sense of ceremony to any concert. Chorus and March is een bewerking van See, the Conquering Hero Comes uit het oratorium Judas Maccabaeus, waarmee voor Händel in 1746 het grote succes kwam. Philip Sparke schreef een meesterwerkwaardige bewerkingvoor harmonieorkest.Chorus and March ist eine Bearbeitung von See, the Conquering Hero Comes ('Seht, der siegreiche Held kommt') aus Georg Friedrich Händels Oratorium Judas Maccabaeus, das dieser im Jahre 1746 in weniger als einem Monat komponierte. Das Oratorium handelt von Judas Makkabäus, der gemäß der jüdischen Überlieferung siegreich gegen die heidnischen Feinde kämpfte. Philip Sparke verfasste eine dem großen Meisterkomponisten würdige Bearbeitung für Blasorchester.Chorus and March est basé sur le célèbre air See, the Conquering Hero comes! ( toi la Gloire !) extrait de l’oratorio Judas Macchabée composé en 1746, en un peu moins d’un mois. Ce nouvel oratorio relate les exploits de Judas Macchabée, un héros de l’histoire sacrée juive qui a mené des combats victorieux contre les ennemis pa ens. Philip Sparke en a réalisé une version pour Orchestre d'Harmonie (Conducteur seul) digne de la création originale du grand maître de la musique baroque.

The 'Hallelujah' Chorus, arguably the most famous choral work of the western classical tradition, is the closing number of the second part of Handel's Messiah.Such is the strength of Handel's word setting that this empathic, triumphal paean retains its appeal in spite of the cultural overexposure and controversy to which it has been subjected, remaining a firm favourite with choirs.The premiere of Messiah was in Dublin in 1742 as the high point of a full season of Handel's work. It was a charity event, held in aid of local causes, and in order to get the maximum attendance at Neale's new music hall in Fishamble Street, men were asked to removetheir swords, and ladies the hoops in their dresses.The tradition of standing during performances of the 'Hallelujah' Chorus, still indulged at some performances in Britains, is said to have been started by King George II at the work's opening run in London in 1743.

In his own distinctive style, Robert van Beringen has composed a very unique fantasy on three themes by the famous Baroque composers Johann Sebastian Bach and George Friedrich Händel. Van Beringen used Bach’s chorale Brich an, o schönes Morgenlicht (‘Break forth, O Beauteous Heavenly Light’) from his Christmas Oratorio and the recitative Behold, a Virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Emmanuel, God with Us from Händel’s Messiah. A perfect way to say Merry Christmas in music!In seinem eigenen unverwechselbaren Stil schuf Robert van Beringen diese Fantasie über drei Themen der berühmten Barockkomponisten Johan Sebastian Bach und Johann Friedrich Händel: Den Choral Brich an, o schönes Morgenlicht nahm er aus Bachs Weihnachtsoratorium; aus Händels Messias stammen die beiden anderen Themen: das Rezitativ Denn sieh, eine Jungfrau wird schwanger und der Hallelujah Chorus. Dans cette fantaisie de Noël, Robert van Beringen conjugue avec une inégalable facilité des thèmes des maîtres du baroque, Jean-Sébastien Bach et Georg Friedrich Haendel. Le choral Brich an, o schönes Morgenlicht, n° 12 est extrait de la deuxième partie de l’Oratorio de Noëlde Jean-Sébastien Bach, tandis que le récitatif « Voici qu’une vierge concevra et enfantera un fils, et lui donnera le nom d’Emmanuel, Dieu avec nous » et le Chœur de l’Alléluia sont extraits du Messie de Georg Friedrich Haendel.
