George Frideric Handel : Three Dances from Water Music

Beginning pianists of all ages can have the pleasure and satisfaction of playing one of classical music's best-known compositions with this edition of George Frideric Handel's Messiah. Based on the Book of Psalms from the King James Bible, the 1741 oratorio was originally an Easter offering and is now a Christmas tradition and features the rousing Hallelujah! chorus.This easy-to-play arrangement offers highlights from all three parts of the choral work, which tells of the birth of Jesus Christ, the Crucifixion, and Resurrection. The thirty-one pieces include For unto Us a Child Is Born, Glory to God, Lift Up Your Heads, O Ye Gates, and I Know That My Redeemer Liveth. The editor has provided simple fingerings and a brief description of each movement. All selections are available as downloadable MP3 files.

Opera in three acts-“Almira” Handel’s first opera was well received when premiered in 1705 at the Theater am Gänsemarkt in Hamburg. The director was Reinhard Keiser who remarkably had himself already set Friedrich Christian Feustking’s text to music. The role of Fernando was sung by Johann Mattheson. The translation used by Handel leaves several Italian arias in their original language resulting in a delightful mixture of German and Italian.The opera which after sundry entangled romances ends in the wedding of three couples is characterised by exuberant scenes: the procession at Almira’scrowning ceremony a duel a prison scene and a masked-ball involving the three continents Europe Africa and Asia.The vocal score to “Almira” by George Frideric Handel brings about a small sensation: Whilst conducting a reenactment of this work in 1732 Georg Philipp Telemann removed the Aria no. 28 “Ingrato spietato” from his conducting score. Since then this aria has been deemed lost. Due to necessity only the edited vocal text devoid of any music was presented in the 1994 volume of the “Halle Handel Edition”.Thanks to a recently discovered contemporary manuscript copy from the beginning of the 18th century which was found in the music library of the Mariengymnasium in Jever this aria has now been made available to performers for the first time in this new vocal score edition. Previous to this the corresponding pages could only be seen as a facsimile in an article of the “Göttinger Händel-Beiträge”.Now the aria can be performed again. Furthermore with the help of this new source missing measures in the basso continuo which had initially been completed by the editor of the “Halle Handel Edition” volume could be reconstructed from the basso continuo part of the Bellante aria “Ich brenne zwar” (no. 71).- Urtext edition based on the “Halle Handel Edition”- Original German and Italian text with a German translation of the Italian arias
