That's an amazing performance, thanks for sharing! (Is it just me or the brass instruments are slightly out of tune? Though gives it a special charm since all of them are out of tune the same way)

My understanding is that period instruments from the Baroque go out of tune very easily. When I've seen the Messiah performed with Baroque-style orchestra, I recall them retuning a number of times during the performance.
