Händel's, not Randall's, Messiah, I presume.
Try not to giggle immaturely in the "For we like sheep" section. (That's always a struggle for me.)

I mean, I've heard it, but we were at a performance that played the Hallelujah chorus part amongst other songs, and we all stood up, as you do, and GHWFP asked why, and I just said it's what you do, and I explained it was part of a larger work, but I couldn't think of the word for what that work is.
The custom of standing for the "Hallelujah" chorus originates from a belief that, at the London premiere, King George II did so, which would have obliged all to stand. There is no convincing evidence that the king was present, or that he attended any subsequent performance of Messiah; the first reference to the practice of standing appears in a letter dated 1756, three years prior to Handel's death.
Uh... it's "all we like sheep"? Have I been singing it wrong all these yips? Puts a different spin on it, don't it?ObsessoMom wrote:Try not to giggle immaturely in the "For we like sheep" section. (That's always a struggle for me.)
It's an oratorio (a large choral and orchestral work with many movements, that (typically) tells an epic story of some sort). In this case, the theme is Christian story of Jesus coming as the Son of God to save mankind from itself. As to the Hallelujah chorus, story is that when the Messiah was performed for the {king|queen} of {England?}, xe stood up, perhaps because xe was stiff from sitting down so long, perhaps for emphasis (did xe know what was coming?) or perhaps just to give the future internet something to talk about. Anyway, if the {king|queen} does it, everyone does it, and the entire audience stood, and it has become a tradition.SBN wrote:Random outside, quasi-related question. What is the Messiah?

I guess my choir was a bit more ... accepting: "We like four sheep". I never understood what that meant, because there are no sheep in Time. Although if you fall asleep, you lose time. Losing Time would be quite an iniquity though; there's got to be anotter way. Imagine if otters were like sheep.ObsessoMom wrote:Yes, it's "All we like sheep," not "For we like sheep."
