Description:
The four anthems* were all composed during Handel's time in London at the Chapel Royal. "As pants the hart"/"So wie der Hirsch nach Wasser schreit", already his fifth setting of this psalm text, was written by the composer for a charity event in March 1738 for the King's Theatre in the Haymarket.
Until shortly before Handel's first stay in England, all instruments other than the organ were prohibited from accompanying the liturgy in the Chapel Royal. The four orchestral works thus also represent something of a new genre of English church music.
The four anthems are presented according to the Urtext of the "Hallische Händel-Ausgabe" with clear and easy-to-play piano reductions. They surprise with their varied and independent orchestral accompaniment, which lends the festive chorus and the no less solemn solo movements the appropriate setting. They have lost none of their splendor to this day. Scores and piano reductions contain a German translation in addition to the original English text.
