Description: This listing is for Handel's Messiah: The Original Manuscripts 1912 in Facsimile Hardcover Book. Georg Friedrich Händel The Messiah: An Oratorio Complete Vocal Score Hardcover 1912 Ed 38. The Messiah: An Oratorio for Four-Part Chorus of Mixed Voices, Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Bass Soli, and Piano First published January 1, 1741Original title: The Messiah: An Oratorio Complete Vocal ScoreFormat: HardcoverPublished: G. Schirmer Inc, January 1, 1966Language: English Anyone attending a Messiah sing-along is most likely to fit in when using this old favorite edition. The musicological work has been superseded by Watkins Shaw's edition for Novello, but his piano reductions are idiosyncratic. This piano-vocal score has no measure numbers or rehearsal figures, but the reduction is pianistic in scope. The choral lines are in smaller type but are workable. The price is of course also highly attractive. Listeners who truly love this work may be interested in the full orchestral score--also at a great price--from Dover, edited by Alfred Mann. Works of German-British composer George Frideric Handel include the orchestral Water Music (1717) and the oratorio Messiah (1742). Andrés Segovia arranged his works. Born the same year as Johann Sebastian Bach, Händel desired to study against the wishes of his father. He, a violinist in the opera house of Hamburg, then at 21 years of age in 1706 traveled to Italy. On his return, he accepted the position of director to the elector of Hannover but quickly left for England. After arrival of Handel, the elector of Hannover reigned as king of England adn secured position of Händel within the sphere of the country. His first operas for the royal academy of operated as a public house; however, when Italians lost their popularity, he turned to the most fame. Händel went blind but continued to play the harpsicord at his performances before his death. People later buried the body of Charles Dickens next to his grave in the corner of poets of Westminster Abbey. Thanks for checking out this item!
