Text: Vincenzo Grimani. Handel'sAgrippinaHWV 6 was performed with great success at the 2015 International Handel Festival in Gottingen (Germany) using the new Barenreiter edition including the performance material and this vocal score.
Agrippinais the last opera that Handel completed and premiered in Italy. The excellent libretto is one of the few original opera libretti that he set to music. The plot is tightly constructed, the characters sharply etched and equipped with a wide range of human emotions.
Agrippina is married to her third husband, the Roman emperor Claudius. After he is presumed dead, she attempts with deception and intrigue to place her son Nero on the throne.
The vocal score includes all the numbers from the appendix of the full score. These were used either during the successful Venetian series of performances in 1709/10 or were deleted or replaced by other numbers, versions and variants.

Arranged by Christopher Sokolowski. This edition: urtext edition. Stapled. Vocal Score. HWV 122. Baerenreiter Verlag #BA04104_90. Published by Baerenreiter Verlag (BA.BA04104-90). ISBN 9790006568222. 27 x 19 cm inches. Text Language: Italian. Preface: Hans Joachim Marx. The episode from Ovid'sMetamorphosesin which Daphne attempts to escape Apollo's advances by turning into a laurel tree, causing the devastated god to weave a laurel crown in memory of the nymph, has inspired the masterworks of many artists. Gian Lorenzo Bernini, whose famous marble sculpture is housed in the Galleria Borghese in Rome, is only one example of this. Many composers set this myth to music including young George Frideric Handel with his grand-scale dramatic cantataApollo e Dafne. The composer started working on the work shortly before leaving Italy in 1709, most likely finishing it the following year in Hanover.
Barenreiter now presents a vocal score of the opera-like cantata, the highlights of which include Dafne's ariaFelicissima quest'alma(accompanied by solo oboe) and Apollo's famous lamentCara pianta.
