Description:
For horn in D and organ (cembalo, piano) score 6 p., horn part
Georg Friedrich Handel (1685-1759) composed his "magical" opera Amadigi di Gaula in 1715. Noteworthy is Amadigi's aria from the third act of the opera of the same name "Sento la gioia, ch'in sen mi brilla" (I feel the joy, glowing in my breast). The vocal part for alto castrato is not only rhythmically and melodically very similar to the 'Alla Hornpipe' from the Water Music, but is also perfectly performable on natural horn in D. Handel certainly had the horn sound in mind when he composed, and it is even possible that the aria is based on an earlier version for solo horn.
With the purchase of this work from the Collection Herman Jeurissen, you will receive this arrangement for free: Bruckner - Aequale & Steiermärker for 4 horns in F
