A popular aria for Soprano from Handel's celebrated Messiah , edited by Watkins Shaw. This particular edition is presented in 12/8 time, rather than the more familiar 4/4 version, but with the Continuo line provided in the original simple time. The piece features the intimate arrangement of two Violins and Continuo with the Soprano soloist, and the music is brimming with Handel's delightful imitative melodic writing, creating an energetic dialogue between the soloist and the strings. / Scores

This authentic arrangement of ten movements from the Water Music suites dates from Handel's lifetime, but is published here for the first time, edited by the distinguished Handel scholar Donald Burrows.

It can be performed in many different combinations from the original two violins, bassoon and continuo to string quartet or wind-based group. / Rép Classique / Répertoire / Scores

Par HESKETH KENNETH. Un Masque (abréviation de Masquerade) a été défini par les historiens comme ' A revel dans laquelle mimes ou masqués folk viennent avec des torches blazing dans la salle de fête et appeler à la compagnie de danse et couper en dés '. Le chaos de cette danse dramatique est représenté dans cette ' Masque ' par Hesketh. Le thème principal est la bravoure et est souvent présent, à l'arrière-plan. La forme de la pièce est un scherzo-trio-scherzo simple. Notation colorés (solos de vent supérieur, solos de trompette et de la corne alternant avec plein de corps tuttis) avec un trait de caractère sauvage peut tease joueur et auditeur à décevoir leurs cheveux un peu ! ' Masque ' a été transcrite pour bande par Kenneth Hesketh de son ' Scherzo pour orchestre ', commandée par l'Orchestre National pour les enfants en 1987. Cette fine pièce peut être entendue sur le CD de la bande Leyland, photos de la côte est (numéro de catalogue 0-571-52109-6)./ Répertoire / Brass Band
