Descripción de la:
Following upon 'Alexander's Feast' (1736), in 1739 Handel produced a second setting of the 'Ode to St Cecilia' ('Song for St Cecilia's Day'). At its première it was combined with 'Alexander's Feast'. Rather than a dramatic plot presentable in the theatre, the Ode, in its seven sections, offers a general hymn of praise to music and its impact. Accordingly, it largely consists of emotion-laden arias and festive orchestration.
This edition, based on the Urtext from the 'Halle Handel Edition', offers the version heard at the first performance - the version preferred in today's concert life. The foreword (Ger/Eng) provides many detailed notes on performance practice with regard to orchestration.
