For
the magnificent opening
of the oratorio season at
the beginning of 1736
Handel presented a
composition which, like
hardly any of his other
oratorios, gave him the
opportunity to display
his musical artistry:
John Dryden's ode
Alexander's Feast or the
Power of Music, published
in 1696, demonstrates the
power of music by the
example of the ancient
hero, Alexander the
Great. From the
impressive lament on the
death of Darius, the King
of Persia, to the
boisterous Praise of
Bacchus Handel avails
himself of the entire
breadth of the musical
representation of the
emotions and the
possibilities for
expression. In the text
by Newburg Hamilton added
at the end of work St.
Cecilia elevates the
events of the ancient
heathen story, which
Handel expressed in
plastic, skillful
polyphony. Later, this
homage to the patron
saint of church music,
Handel also present the
opportunity to perform
the work on St. Cecilia's
Day (22 November). For
the first time the
present new edition is
based consistently on
Handel's conducting
score, which he used for
his own performances of
the oratorio, thus not
only eliminating timeworn
errors, but also offering
clarity concerning the
choruses, the arias and
recitatives, actually
performed in Handel's
concerts, as well as
their sequence of
performance. The new
Carus edition offers two
performance versions: the
version of the premiere
in 1736, as well as a
revised version from
1751. Furthermore, the
inclusion of the Concerto
for Harp HWV 294 (CV
55.294) is also possible;
Handel composed this work
especially for
Alexander's Feast (as an
illustration of
Timotheus, the ancient
poet who played the
lyre). For this purpose
the edition contains the
appropriate alternatives
for the sequence of the
movements. Score and part
available separately -

Vocalise.
No
traditional tunes of any
kind are made use of in
this piece, in which I
have wished to express my
personal feelings about
my own country
(Australia) and people,
and also to voice a
certain kind of emotion
that seems to me not
untypical of native-born
Colonials in
general.Perhaps it is not
unnatural that people
living more or less
lonelily in vast virgin
countries and struggling
against natural and
climatic hardships
(rather than against the
more actively and
dramaticly exciting
counter wills of their
fellow men, as in more
thickly populated lands)
should run largely to
that patiently yearning,
inactive sentimental
wistfulness that we find
so touchingly expressed
in much American art; for
instance in Mark Twains
Huckleberry Finn, and
Stephen C. Foster's
adorable songs, My Old
Kentucky Home, Old Folks
at Home, etc. I have also
noticed curious, almost
Italian-like, musical
tendencies in brass band
performances and ways of
singing in Australia
(such as a preference for
richness and intensity of
tone and soulful breadth
of phrasing over more
subtly and sensitively
varied delicacies of
expression) which are
also reflected here.Percy

Reynaldo Hahn:
Works for cello and piano
[AL 30 749] For quite
some time, posterity
remembered Reynaldo Hahn
(1874-1947) for just a
handful of songs and the
operetta Ciboulette,
overlooking the
incredible diversity of a
catalogue as eclectic as
it is appealing. Yet his
chamber music contains
many little-known
treasures: thus, cellist
Steven Isserlis, in his
preface, hastens to hail
the first modern edition
of these two scores,
which he regularly plays
in recital, so much does
their beauty enchant the
audience. Published in
1911, the Two
Improvisations on Irish
Airs for cello and piano
turn out to be the
transcription of his
first and third Preludes
for piano four hands
(1894). These folk themes
come from the collection
Songs of Old Ireland,
published 12 years
earlier by Charles
Villiers Stanford:
gracefully and tenderly,
The Little Red Lark
unfurls a melancholic
tune of which the regular
foundation respects the
breadth of phrase typical
of folk songs; in The
Willow-Tree, the lover
begs his beloved in vain
to take him in her arms
one last time before he
lies down, lifeless, in
the shade of the tree.
Beyond this sensitive
exploration of the Irish
soul, Hahn offers us a
journey into the past:
the Variations chantantes
sur un air ancien develop
a theme borrowed from
Cavalli?s opera Xerse. In
this aria (1660 version:
Act IV, sc. 6),
Ambassador Periarco
dreams of moving away
from court intrigues to
be able to taste the
pleasures ?to which the
gods have destined him?.
Reynaldo Hahn?s
variations succeed in
maintaining the sweet
simplicity of this theme,
as noble as it is
refined. Let us wager
that this publication
will delight cellists and
pianists alike: it
contains some nuggets.

Martin Luther, Salomo

Bach's
Reformation cantata,
based on what is probably
Martin Luther's most
famous hymn, evolved over
a period of several
years. At the beginning
was a Weimar cantata for
Oculi Sunday 1716, now
missing, which was based
on the hymn with an
instrumental quotation in
the opening aria and with
the final chorale. In the
Leipzig years around
1730, Bach wrote a
cantata for Reformation
Day using this material.
It began with the first
verses of Luther's hymn
in a simple four-part
setting and also included
the other verses. Later
on, in the 1730s or
1740s, Bach replaced the
introductory chorale
movement with a chorale
setting which was unique,
spacious and motet-like
in its style; this -
uniquely in this respect
- incorporated the choral
writing in an
instrumental canon for
oboes and organ continuo.
The powerful opening
chorus is followed by
recitatives and arias
which reflect the full
breadth of Bach's art of
word painting and
emotion. One of Bach's
most magnificent
cantatas, one of the
greatest works in the
history of music. In
addition to the complete
performance material the
arrangements of movements
1 and 5 (with 3 trumpets,
timpani as playing score)
by Wilhelm Friedemann
Bach are available (Carus
