A stage adaptation of the famous oratorio Messiah performed by the South Bohemian Theater, directed by Tomáš Ondřej Pilař and conducted by David Švec on the stage in front of the Revolving Auditorium in Český Krumlov... Director Tomáš Ondřej Pilař likens the oratorio Messiah to a large, luxurious box of chocolates containing the best of Baroque music. However, the path to the creation of this work was neither straightforward nor obvious. Georg Friedrich Händel was born in what is now Germany, in Halle an der Saale, on February 23, 1685. He was born into a Europe that adored opera, specifically Italian opera. What did Italian Baroque opera look like? At that time, it was a series of arias whose main purpose was to showcase the vocal abilities of the individual performers. To showcase how loud, how high, how fast they could sing, how they could change emotions during a single performance.

This concert, recorded to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the landmark musical Les Miserables, gathers the casts of the show's 2010 original production at the Queen's Theatre, the 1985 original production by the London company, and the 2010 production at the Barbican together for one performance. Together with talents like Michael Ball, Hadley Fraser, and John Owen-Jones, the performers present the play's musical numbers in a semi-theatrical style, fully costumed and with all the emotion of the musical's heyday.
