Donald Neuen - A Conductor's Pursuit of Handel's Messiah

Maestro Don Neuen 
A Maestro's Passion...

Donald Neuen is a leading authority on Handel's Messiah.
Had the privilege of watching and experiencing him tonight conducting the Angeles Chorale.

He is intense, yet effortless. He is serious, yet expressive.
It was a more pure, less decorated Messiah.

In his own words...Handel wrote Messiah for the public, in a concert hall with more jazzy spirit than the music styles which came before.  It's not about evangelizing Jesus; but the Story, the Essence of who Jesus was and stand for even now...the message of peace.

Here is a glimpse of his passion in talking about Handel's Messiah.
