Description:
George Frideric Handel is regarded as the first and most important English representative of the oratorio genre. The Messiah in particular is regarded as the epitome of sacred music and is also one of the most frequently performed works in the German-speaking world. The work never existed in a final form, but Handel made various revisions due to changing performance conditions and soloists. This critical edition contains all the surviving alternative versions of the solo movements. A concordance makes it possible to assign them to the performances under Handel's direction between the Dublin premiere in 1742 and the London concerts up to 1754. In response to many requests from choral practitioners, two monolingual piano reductions (English or German) are provided to improve readability. The soloists are offered ornamentation suggestions by the editor and internationally renowned early music expert Ton Koopman, which are based on the findings of historically informed performance practice. A choral score is also available for the choir in the version commonly used for today's performances (without variant movements).
