Here for the first time in a popularly accessible edition are 35 of his finest keyboard works for solo instruments reproduced from the monumental Deutsche Handelgesellschaft edition including eight 'Great Suites' and 'Fugue In A Minor'. For this new edition the pieces have been rearranged and retitled according to the latest scholarly sequences found in The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians. Students and scholars will find many of the ideas Handel sketched here expanded and reworked in later chamber and orchestral works and in the opera dance movements; musicians and every Baroque music lover will see in these neglected pieces 'a Protean Fluidity' (New Grove) worthyof the great composer and more than worthy of any musical library.

Suites Nos. 5 6 7 and 8-The Eight Great Suites is perhaps Handel's best-known and finest collection of keyboard works. Each of the four suites included here is written in full. This edition includes an informative introduction and a textual notes section. Selections from this volume are featured in the ABRSM Grade 7 Harpsichord and Grade 8 Piano syllabi.

Historical information about Händel's Water Music Suites is limited, but certainly these works were intended for two, possibly three, parties given by King George I on the Thames River, London, between 1715 and 1736. Händel and his orchestra played on a barge. Since then the some twenty-two separate original pieces have been organized into three Suites and nicknamed 'Water Music?, each having a separate key and likely corresponding to these river parties. This transcription of Water Music Suite II for saxophone quartet has two purposes: to make this music available to saxophonists for performance and education, and to provide in one volume the entire Suite II. The exception to the latter, because of the limits of endurance, is the exclusion of the short Adagio, a brief interlude between the fi rst two movements. Included though are the Allegro, Hornpipe, Minuet, Lentement, and Bourree. These works were originally meant for an outdoor performance, and one of the original intentions of the saxophone was to play in French military bands, also an open-air purpose. The original scoring of brass, woodwind, and string instruments (but no continuo) transcribe well for saxophones. Matching the ranges of instruments of the original to the saxophone quartet was a primary objective. In addition, this arrangement strives to disperse melodic material to all four saxophones so as to make the arrangement pleasing to all the members of the quartet while providing variety to an audience. Any dynamic, articulation, and tempo markings are to be taken only as suggestions so as to allow interpretation by the performers. The musical study and performance of all styles while using examples of composition and performance that represent excellence is necessary for saxophonists who wish to be well-rounded musicians. For the above reasons saxophonists are urged to listen to recordings of the original orchestration in order to learn and imitate proper interpretation of Baroque style. There are currently a number of excellent recordings of Handel's Suites on period instruments, such as (but not limited to) those by conductors John Eliot Gardiner, Christopher Hogwood, and the ensemble Tafelmusik. The Lewis-Clark State College Saxophone Quartet has for many years enjoyed performing Suite II for concerts, ceremonies and social settings, and I thank Advance Music for the opportunity to bring these great works to the profession. / 4 Saxophones (SATBar)

For the occasion of the coronation of King George II and Queen Caroline which took place in Westminster Abbey on October 11 1727 Handel wrote four splendid anthems and personally supervised their performance which was according to all reports one of great magnificence. The four anthems were enthusiastically received and one or more of them has been performed at every British coronation since 1727. Anthem No. 2 ('The King Shall Rejoice') although less well-known than Anthem No. 1 is an equally splendid example of Handel's ceremonial style - what Burney has affectionately termed his 'big bow-bow manner'. This work contains an opening Allegro brilliant and elegantrather than pompous; a grandiose setting of 'Glory and great worship hast thou laid upon him'; and a lively fugal Alleluia as a conclusion.For six-part chorus of mixed voices with organ or piano accompaniment. Edited and with keyboard reduction by William Herrman.

G.F.Handel's (1685-1759) Sonata In B Flat is well-known to the Oboe repertoire. Therefore when French clarinetist Emile Stievenard arranged the popular piece for the Clarinet it was very well-received. The Sonata In B Flat is made up of four movements; Adagio Allegro Adagio and Allegro. Handel's Sonata In B Flat was first published in 1707-10 for Oboe. Stievenard's editions ensure that the Clarinet part contains the articulation performance directions phrasing and breath marks necessary to the instrument. For all clarinetists thisarrangement of the popular Sonata In B Flat is essential.

for Violin and Basso continuo-Handel returned repeatedly throughout his life to the composition of works for violin and basso continuo. The earliest autograph HWV 358 was composed around 1707 his last work for this combination of instruments the Sonata in D major HWV 371 stems from circa 1750. In addition to the 5 sonatas which have survived as autographs there are 4 other sonatas of a spurious nature which have found a place in the violin repertoire under Handel’s name although they are certainly not from his pen. These sonatas are attempts by other unknown composers to make a name by using the style of the great master. To round off thisfirst ever publication of Handel's Complete Works for Violin and Basso continuo there are two movements currently not available in any other performing edition: the Allegro HWV 408 and an Andante HWV 412. The Authoritative Performing Edition Edition with the recently-revised Urtext of the Halle Handel Edition First ever performing edition of the complete works for violin and basso continuo in one volume With separate violin and continuo bass parts the latter with figures Basso continuo part with figures including 2 movements not available in any other performing edition Includes valuable comments on performance practice An Associated Board recommended title “All violinists should buy this volume not only for its completeness and clarity but because it is exceptionally good value for score and parts.”(ESTA News Views Spring 2003)
