Abstract:
In 1750, George Frideric Handel gave musical history's greatest gift--his Messiah-- to an orphanage in London. From that city comes Thomas, a boy who sings like an angel but will not speak. Finally, he is healed with the help of Maestro Handel, Katarina (from Vivaldi's ring of mystery) and the power and glory of music.
