"De to musikere har prøvet konceptet før, da de for halvandet år siden udsatte " Matthæuspassionen" for en tilsvarende behandling. Resultatet var vellykket ... Også denne gang slipper de glimrende fra eksperimentet, og man kan sagtens argumentere for, at den særlige konstellation trompet plus orgel passer endnu bedre til " Messias"' storladne karakter, end det var tilfældet med Bachs i bund og grund mere intime passion ... Skiven er værdifuld og velklingende på sine egne præmisser".

"If you make it past the cheesily punning title, hold on tight; Red Priest's Handel takes no hostages ... For sheer technical wizardry, charismatic showmanship, and expressive devilment, Red Priest is in an exhilarating class of its own".

"'This is a disc that arguably should never have been made.' That's Red Priest themselves writing in the booklet accompanying their latest assault on decorum, in which they reduce Handel's masterpiece to a series of dad jokes, gratuitous virtuoso displays and outrageous anachronisms. The worst part is that it's actually quite brilliant".
