Israel in Egypt

Album by George Frideric Handel

Israel in Egypt is an oratorio by Georg Friedrich Händel, composed in 1738 and first performed in 1739. Musically it is largely choral with fugal textures and orchestral accompaniment, and it expands Händel's use of chorus compared with his earlier vocal works.
