The Hallelujah Chorus is the 24th movement in Handel's famous oratorio, Messiah. It has become a tradition to the audience to stand up while the recital of the chorus with a belief that King George II did the same. And it is now even popular as the background music for a commercial for Baskin Robbins ice creams.
