Messiah: O Thou That Tellest Good Tidings to Zion (Handel)
Original Key: D Major MP3
The ninth movement in Handel's Messiah begins with an alto aria, and ends with a triumphant SATB chorus. Together, they create a massive and grand piece of music. Smooth and flowing, this interpretation is inspired by the well-known London Symphony Orchestra recordings.
O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion,
get thee up into the high mountain,
O thou that tellest good tidings to Jerusalem,
lift up thy voice with strength,
lift it up, be not afraid,
say unto the cities of Judah: Behold your God!
O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion,
arise, shine, for thy light is come,
and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
