As one of the most prolific composers ever to have lived G.F. Handel's (1683-1759) catalogue is extensive. Moreover, being an organist himself, his Organ works are significant and remain ever-popular to this day. Handel's Organ Concertos remain some of his most popular and best loved works and so, when French organist, Marcel Dupre (1886-1971) compiled the series of Handel's Organ Concertos, it was well-received, and to this day remains popular with all organists. The second volume includes the seventh-twelfth concertos. In addition, Dupre's annotations in the Organ Concertos comprise fingerings, and a detailed preface in French, English and German. This compilation of Handel's most loved compositions for the Organ cannot be missed by aspiring performers of the instrument..

The aim of this combined scholarly and practical edition of the Brandenburg Concertos is to offer a state of the art performance material of these standard works of Baroque music literature, which satisfies the practical needs of performing artists.These new editions were based on surviving autographic source material - some of which, for the Fifth Concerto for example, has been taken into account for the first time - and the 'Neue Bach-Ausgabe' (NBA). Moreover, they also make use of relevant 18th-century theoretical writings for editorial additions and observations on performance practice.(from the joint preface to the Six Brandenburg Concertos by the Bach scholars Werner Felix, Winfried Hoffmann and Armin Schneiderheinze)Instead of a slow movement, the Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 has nothing but two chords. Bach, like Handel in his organ concertos, most likely wanted the solo instruments to insert an improvisation here. But what is easy for the proficient organ soloist in Handel's music turns out to be impossible for the nine solo parts in Bach's piece. Emil Platen's solution offers a loosely structured elaboration that is placed before the two chords notated by Bach and that uses all of the string instruments. It draws its inspiration from stylistic elements of the concerto, without creating the impression of being an autonomous movement..

,I want to make an edition that is not a Koopman interpretation, but contains only that which Handel really wrote.' (Ton Koopman)

ISBN 9790004209462. 9 x 12 inches.

Ton Koopman's new edition of all 16 organ concertos by Handel has drawn to a close. The quality of this edition has been highly praised from all quarters. Source-critical responsibility goes hand in hand with a high level of performance practice when Koopman provides interpretative tips for the ad libitum passages in the organ part without restricting the creativity of the interpreter who is interested in stylistic matters and prefers to work out his own solutions. I want to make an edition that is not a Koopman interpretation, but contains only that which Handel really wrote. Nevertheless, there are occasional performance suggestions in small print which are elucidated in the Critical Commentary. (Ton Koopman in Concerto) Koopman offers a basically unmarked text, thus leaving the performance details up to the performer. Especially note-worthy is the clear printing, extensive preface and detailed Critical Notes. (Katholische Kirchenmusik) Whoever wishes to hear the entire Koopman edition on CD can look forward to the new recording by Christian Schmitt and the Stuttgarter Kammerorchester (Brilliant Classics). This is the first recording for which all 16 new Koopman editions were used as the basis for the performance.
