Our Take

The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, under the direction of Jonathan Griffith, has teamed up with The Jonathan Griffith Singers and the National Youth Choir of Great Britain to bring us a new take on Handel's Messiah with "Messiah ... Refreshed!" And let me tell you, this album is anything but your traditional Messiah.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world where classical meets contemporary in the most delightful way. The orchestra's lush soundscapes provide the perfect backdrop for the heavenly harmonies of the choir, creating a truly epic listening experience.

But what sets this album apart is the unexpected twists and turns that Griffith and his team bring to the table. Whether it's a fresh interpretation of a classic movement or a surprising fusion of genres, "Messiah ... Refreshed!" keeps you on your toes from start to finish.

Standout tracks include the hauntingly beautiful "Hallelujah Chorus" and the infectious energy of "For Unto Us a Child is Born." But honestly, every track on this album is a gem in its own right.

So if you're looking for a fresh take on a timeless classic, look no further than the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Jonathan Griffith, and the incredible voices of The Jonathan Griffith Singers and the National Youth Choir of Great Britain. "Messiah ... Refreshed!" is a must-listen for music lovers of all tastes.
