About This Song

About "Handel: Messiah, HWV 56, Pt. 2, Scene 6: Chorus. "Let Us Break Their Bonds Asunder"" by Choir Of King's College, Cambridge

A ferocious chorus, all sharp edges and defiant counterpoint. The singers hurl the words 'break their bonds' with rhythmic violence, a musical insurrection that feels thrillingly dangerous before it is swiftly quelled by heavenly authority.
