Handel’s oratorio Judas Maccabaeus was composed in a period of not much more than a month in 1746. As with the famous Messiah, use was made of previously composed material and indeed See, the Conquering Hero Comes! was grafted from another oratorio about Joshua. This arrangement of See the conquering Hero Comes will bring a great sense of ceremony to any concert. Chorus and March is een bewerking van See, the Conquering Hero Comes uit het oratorium Judas Maccabaeus, waarmee voor Händel in 1746 het grote succes kwam. Philip Sparke schreef een meesterwerkwaardige bewerkingvoor harmonieorkest.Chorus and March ist eine Bearbeitung von See, the Conquering Hero Comes ('Seht, der siegreiche Held kommt') aus Georg Friedrich Händels Oratorium Judas Maccabaeus, das dieser im Jahre 1746 in weniger als einem Monat komponierte. Das Oratorium handelt von Judas Makkabäus, der gemäß der jüdischen Überlieferung siegreich gegen die heidnischen Feinde kämpfte. Philip Sparke verfasste eine dem großen Meisterkomponisten würdige Bearbeitung für Blasorchester.Chorus and March est basé sur le célèbre air See, the Conquering Hero comes! ( toi la Gloire !) extrait de l’oratorio Judas Macchabée composé en 1746, en un peu moins d’un mois. Ce nouvel oratorio relate les exploits de Judas Macchabée, un héros de l’histoire sacrée juive qui a mené des combats victorieux contre les ennemis pa ens. Philip Sparke en a réalisé une version pour Orchestre d'Harmonie (Conducteur seul) digne de la création originale du grand maître de la musique baroque.

Im April 2009 jährt sich der Todestag von Georg Friedrich Händel zum 250. Mal. Ein guter Grund, seinen Werken in diesem Jahr besondere Aufmerksamkeit zu schenken. Zum Beispiel mit einem thematischen Konzertprogramm, das mit dieser Bearbeitung der Ouvertüre in d-Moll beginnen könnte. De 1717 1720, Haendel est au service du duc de Chandos Cannons. De cette époque datent les magnifiques Chandos Anthems (grands motets pour choeur, voix de solistes, orgue et orchestre) qui reflètent merveilleusement la capacité du compositeur créer des sonorités magnifiques avec une formation musicale modeste. L’Ouverture en Ré mineur est extraite du Chandos Anthem n° 2 (HWV 247) In the Lord put I my trust qui constitue une des plus belles pages de musique religieuse du compositeur.

A Tambourin is a lively dance with two beats. Originally from Provence is was often accompanied by a pipe and a tambourine. Melodic simplicity and poignant rhythm were characteristic features, often imitating the hand striking the percussion instrument. They were most popular widespread across France and Europe in the 18th Century, this dance often inspired the more sophisticated court composers, especially in France. This volume consists of 14 Tambourines by some of the great composers including Philibert de Lavigne, Christoph Willibald Gluck, Georg Friedrich Handel and Jean-Marie Leclair, all arranged for Guitar and Flute by Bent Larsen and Jan Sommer.

In his libretto for “ Riccardo primo”, Paolo Rolli drew on Antonio Lotti’s opera “ Isacio tiranno ” which had been performed in Venice in 1710. Handel needed a text with two great women’s roles, for the two best female singers of the day were members of his troupe – Francesca Cuzzoni and Faustina Bordoni . He had already written the operas “Alessandro” and “ Admeto ” for them. He began composing “ Riccardo ” in spring 1727, completing the first version on 16 May. However, following the death of King George I on 11 June 1727, the theatres remained closed. For Handel, who had become a British citizen in February 1727, the accession of George II to the throne offered new possibilities, and he embarked on a revision of the opera. With this, he was able to offer a new opera for the coronation festivities, the hero of which was one of King George’s charismatic forebears. From May onwards, Handel thoroughly revised the present score, wrote some parts anew and expanded it with particularly splendid music. Handel and Rolli also improved the plot and introduced patriotic elements to honour the British monarchy. The historic background is the third crusade against Saladin, the Sultan of Egypt and Syria , who had recaptured Jerusalem in 1187. Although King Richard I captured Cyprus and together with French crusaders stormed the fortress of Akko in the Holy Land, the crusade ended with a ceasefire and Jerusalem remained in Saladin’s hands. Richard was given the title ‘Coeur-de-lion‹’ by the English for his great military ability and bravery, although the Sicilians had first given him this name because of his relentless cruelty in clashes around Messina . The vocal score is based on the Halle Handel Edition volume published in 2005, edited by Terence Best, and contains the second version of the opera which was premiered in November 1727.

The two John Milton poems, L'Allegro (cheerfulness), and Il Pensi eroso (melancholy), describe the differences between these two moods. Charles Jennens fashioned a libretto from these texts, adding a third part entitled Moderato (moderation). From the first performance the oratorio was already a great success, a success which continued in later years. This edition is a revised reprint of Friedrich Chrysander's edition. The vocal score and the German singing text are by Helmut Bornefeld. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.2921400.
