“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”
– Isaiah 9:6
“The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. Those who dwell in the land of deep darkness, on them has light shown. For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given, and the government shall be upon His shoulders, and His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace…”
The first performance of Messiah was on 13th April 1742, to celebrate Easter.
3 of The 5 Browns perform an arrangement of Handel’ s For Unto Us a Child is Born from The Messiah. This arrangement is made by Czerny (notable for his piano exercises) with six hands at one piano. It is an incredibly tricky little piece where arms are over and under playing passages together.
