Messiah Rehearsal material
The ChordPerfect and Choralia websites have rehearsal material for the Messiah. ChordPerfect has material for each chorus with emphasised voice.
ChordPerfect (recommended)
Choralia
Clicking the link below will send you to the Choralia website. There is no need to pay or to download anything:
- Scroll down to your voice and chorua then one of the options (with metronome, your part emphasised, neutral). I always take the middle option
- Click the play button! It will play with a synthesised voice.
- There are controls to adjust the stereo balance and the emphasis of your part, the speed and play once/in a loop
