This book takes the curious listener through his entire output, from his earliest works in Italy, through his more than 40 operas, and including the famous English oratorios on which his reputation largely rests. Along the way it examines his orchestral music, the pieces he wrote for England's lavish royal ceremonies, and his surprisingly limited production of sacred music. Just as important, the book surveys and recommends recordings of all of the music discusses, so that listeners can acquire a music collection of whatever depth suits them best, while the included CD features top-notch recordings from the [PIAS] label of a wide range of Handel's music in all of the major media in which he worked, both vocal and instrumental. Few composers cared more than Handel about pleasing his listeners and creating a body of work that was both entertaining and fun. It's time to blow away the Victorian cobwebs that have dogged his reputation, and discover just how much there is to enjoy."--Back cover. 600 10 $a Handel, George Frideric, $d 1685-1759 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Handel, George Frideric, $d 1685-1759. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00045463 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 830 0 $a Unlocking the masters series ; $v no. 30. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2004077675 941 $a 1 945 $a cda 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214014309.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=41B8C4220B6411EAA467CE0D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
