Description:
Handel's Jubilate HWV 279 from Utrecht thrilled London audiences at its very first performance and continues to do so today in concert halls and churches around the world, partly due to its wide range of uses. It was heard for the first time in a festive service on July 7, 1713 in St. Paul's Cathedral to celebrate the peace that had ended the War of the Spanish Succession after twelve years of war. The Utrecht Te Deum and Jubilate are Handel's first sacred works in English and important milestones at the beginning of his London career.
The edition is based on Handel's (unfortunately incomplete) autograph as well as on a copy from Handel's circle, which in some respects goes beyond the autograph and provided valuable details for the edition. In 1717 Handel reworked the Jubilate for the chapel in Cannons in a smaller instrumentation (HWV 246) and preceded it with a two-part Sinfonia, which is also reproduced in the appendix to this edition.
The choir is predominantly four-part, only in one short movement eight-part, in two other movements the soprano is divided. The second alto solo part can also be taken by a high tenor.
