ISBN 9790007095192. Language: German/English.

Contains part II-III Israel in Egypt is one of the most popular of Handel's oratorios, because of its large number of choruses, and has long enjoyed a firm place in the concert repertoire of many choirs. With its many movements scored for double choir, Israel in Egypt offers a widely-contrasting expressive spectrum, ranging from the expressive lament on the dramatic depictions of the plagues to the festive-triumphant rejoicing of the liberated Israelites. This outstanding work amongst Handel's oratorios is available as a critical edition in the Stuttgart Handel Edition (Urtext). It contains the complete three-part version of the work of 1739. English musicologist Clifford Bartlett, an experienced specialist on the international early music scene, is the editor. Score available separately - see item CA.5505400.

Vivaldi's setting of Psalm 113 (Psalm 114 in the Protestant Bible) In exitu Israel was probably composed in 1739. Strings and basso continuo accompany the homophonically-written vocal parts. The text of this psalm - the longest of all the vesper psalms - was set by Vivaldi in an extremely condensed composition. Despite its brevity, his fine feeling for the emotional content of the text is wonderfully expressed. Even in this one-movement work the composer creates space for variety by not only varying the string accompaniment, but also playing with the keys effectively and sometimes in surprising ways, or hinting at the responsorial style of psalm settings. Score and part available separately - see item CA.4001800.
