1)Compare J.S. Bach’s Zion hears the Watchmen from Cantata no. 140 and Handel’s Messiah (three parts on cd tracks 21 – The Voice of him that Crieth in the Wilderness, 22 – Ev’ry Valley Shall be Exalted, and, 24 – Hallelujah). Listen once without reading about them and then again after reading what the composers were doing.
