Preparing Messiah highlights Baroque performance practice and Ideals,
Practical Considerations for Performing Messiah and other helpful
information; Part II includes warm-ups for 20 choruses; Part III includes
Appendices with a historical context of Messiah, primary sources supporting
Baroque style and expression and a recommended reading list. The director
score includes the full text and warm-ups with piano accompaniments, along
with a code for accessing downloadable singer parts online. The singer book
includes a handy folder-sized print edition of the vocal warm-ups.
