Salomon's Oratorio

Salomon's Oratorio, composed by George Frideric Handel in 1748, is a large-scale religious musical work that combines chorus, soloists, and orchestra to tell the biblical story of King Solomon’s wisdom and the Queen of Sheba’s visit. It features dramatic vocal and instrumental music designed to inspire awe and reflection. The oratorio emphasizes themes of divine guidance, power, and wisdom, and it was created for performance during the Christian liturgical season, blending storytelling with powerful musical expression to deepen spiritual experience.
