Handel was influenced by the Neapolitan school so that he wrote such long coloratura in his life. In order to sing these long coloraturas, the performers should breathe in an appropriate and regular way to make whole lyric complete and beautiful. As a result, the singer usually needs to turn down volume, relax the body to avoid the chest voice.
3.3.2 The mastery of volume and dynamics
The second part will also be taken as an example to show the mastery of volume and dynamics. The second part starts from the 44th bar of ‘He is the righteous Saviour…’ and ends with 65th bar, which is composed of two periods. From 44th to 55th bar, the first period actually implies a turning point of people’s emotion. The register of the first sentence has changed from g to c and second begins with F and ends with d. This change has made the whole melody mild and euphemistic. For this part, the singer should express his joy and gladness in very details for having the ‘Prince of Peace’ around. The emotion differs itself from the first part and should be performed out by the singer from brightness to affectionateness; the tempo. Meanwhile, it needs to be noticed and controlled. When the singer gets to the last sentence of ‘He shall speak peace unto the heathen’, he can slow down the control of the tempo as there is a recapitulation followed from 66th bar to the end.

Polyphony not only develops the characteristics of the thought of music, but also plays an important role in uniformity. Just like the song, ‘Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion’, it is coordinated with the theme of welcoming Jesus and compose the unity of music.
5. Conclusion总结
In his vocal works, the most outstanding is his oratorio. Though some critics were unhappy with his some odd errors in syntax (Allan, 2006, pp.7), the oratorio is extraordinary because of its accessible and appealing-to-all. His creative experience and skills in musical make his oratorio works better and more colorful. In his works chorus develops throughout the whole oratorio chorus, which is often described as the most magnificent brilliant chapter. Based on the above analysis, it can be conclude that polyphony is indeed good. As a learner, we have to gain a full understanding of the value of the song, Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion of Handel take the heritage of traditional techniques from ancestors to the next generation. In addition, Chinese scholars study western music history and give a reasonable interpretation on contemporary western music. At present, they should stand in the height of the global cultural anthropology and are in a deep understanding of western culture under the sink to in-depth study of music, clearly reflecting the profound differences between native culture and alien culture to a higher level of recognition,
