Te Deum for the Victory of Dettingen

SKU: BA.BA10706-01

ISBN 9790006550227. 33 x 26 cm inches. Text Language: English. Preface: Amanda Babington.

The Dettinger Te Deum was written to celebrate England's victory over the French at the Battle of Dettingen.
It is Handel's last and most successful setting of the Te Deum and reveals a deep understanding of the English church music tradition.
The sound impact of this broadly conceived work is governed by the choirs in an almost theatrical exegesis of the text. Particularly striking are several borrowings from the Messiah which Handel had just completed.
This edition, edited by Baroque specialist Amanda Babington, is based on the Urtext from the Halle Handel Edition.

* First Urtext edition
* Includes a Foreword (Eng/Ger).

- edition based on the autograph, from which Handel conducted the first performance - detailed foreword in three languages - critical Report with information about the source situation, the edition, and containing the individual readings (alternative readings, etc.) Great occasions call for great music The Dettingen Te Deum is a brilliant example of how Handel could capture the tone for festive occasions as had never been done before. The expression of the exalted character of this official work is imparted through Handel's express use of timpani and trumpets. Gentler and more serious movements effectively complement the work. The basis for the present critical edition of this work is the London autograph, which has survived and from which Handel probably conducted the first performance. In addition, the initial concluding version of the chorus Make them to be number'd has been published in this edition. In this version Handel strived for a more compact and stricter voice leading. Score available separately - see item CA.5528300.
