The
English conductor and
composer Howard Arman has
presented us with a
completed version of
Mozartâ??s Requiem.
â??Another one?â? you
might ask, since this
publication is only the
latest in a long line
reaching back to the
traditional Sü�mayr
version. Yet such is the
enormous power of
Mozartâ??s score that
the challenge and appeal
of completing it remain
undiminished. After two
decades of intensive
study, Howard Armanâ??s
additions to Mozartâ??s
great original show the
requisite care and
respect while
incorporating many new
insights.
Armanâ?
?s approach is
particularly fruitful.
Always aware of the
appropriate limits to
such re-creative work, he
orients himself towards
the typical
characteristics of
Mozartâ??s brilliant
composing style: The
masterly compositional
technique, the search for
innovative solutions to
every problem, and even
the terse treatment of
the text with extremely
suggestive harmonies. All
of this leads to a number
of new listening
experiences. In the Tuba
mirum, for example, we
enjoy a warm, cohesive
ensemble sound, supported
by the bassoons, which
depart from the bass
line. The Confutatis
presents a quite
different picture: Even
the basset horns are
drawn down into the
infernal depths. This
effect is reinforced by
the independence of the
trombones; rather than
simply following the
choral parts, the
instrumentâ??s unique
sound is given an
opportunity to shine.
Armanâ??s Lacrimosa
achieves a lively
Mozartian feel by
granting the voices
considerable freedom
rather than following a
rigid pattern. And he
concludes the movement
with a fugal Amen,
whereby the focus is not
so much on the
counterpoint itself, but
rather â?? in the spirit
of Mozart â?? on
creating a sense of drama
and illuminating the
theme in all its possible
facets. Mozartâ??s
fragment ends with the
Hostias, and so does
Armanâ??s completion.
For the four
following movements
(Sanctus to Communio) we
have nothing from Mozart,
and so here, where the
master is silent, Arman
finally returns to
Sü�mayr, the man who
was closest to Mozart at
the time of his death and
whose efforts to fill the
blank manuscripts still
garner our respect
today.
Armanâ??s
version has already
proven its practical
value. The premiere with
the Bavarian Radio Choir
was enthusiastically
received by audiences and
press alike â?? and
celebrated as offering a
scholarly, entirely fresh
perspective on
Mozartâ??s
masterpiece.

“Jeph
tha†is
Handel’s last
oratorio. Handel had to
break off from composing
several times because of
his increasing blindness
in 1751. The first
performance at the Covent
Garden Theatre in
February 1752 was the
last performance he
conducted before he went
completely blind. In
“Jephthaâ€,
Handel succeeded in
achieving the perfect
fusion between a biblical
plot and the spirit of
classical tragedy. With
great intensity and
dramatic expression he
highlighted in particular
the fates of Jephtha and
Iphis , thereby
portraying convincing and
complex
characters.
The
chorus “How Dark, O
Lord, are Thy
Decrees†at the end
of part two is of crucial
importance in the work
and is regarded as the
dramatic high point of
the oratorio.
The
vocal score is based on
volume I/30 of the
“Halle Handel
Edition†(BA 4014),
which contains the
complete critical version
of the music of the
oratorio for the first
time.

Handel
composed Samson directly
after completing the
Messiah. After its
premiere in 1743 in the
Covent Garden Theatre in
London, the work rapidly
became one of the
composerâ??s most
successful oratorios
alongside Esther and
Judas Maccabaeus. This
probably had as much to
do with the popular Old
Testament story of the
libretto as with
Handelâ??s masterly
shaping of the arias and
choruses.
By
including some movements
in the appendix, this
edition makes it possible
for the first time to
perform the work in its
original 1741 version.
The edition is based
on the complete edition
volume of the Halle
Handel Edition (BA 4099),
offering the complete
music text of the
oratorio for the first
time.

Handel set
the myth about the love
of the shepherd Acis for
the sea nymph Galatea
from Ovid’s
“Metamorphosesâ€
a total of three
times: in the cantata
“Aci, Galatea e
Polifemo†HWV 72
(1708), the masque
“Acis and
Galatea†HWV 49a
(1718) and finally the
pasticcio-like serenata
“Acis and
Galatea†HWV 49b
(1732) of which the
original version is now
made available in its
complete form for the
first time.
A
particular charm is
provided by the use of
two languages in the
serenata. The work was
originally conceived in
English, as was required
for the first
performance. However,
Handel’s Italian
singers were criticised
for their poor command of
English, – so in
the end, many numbers
were sung in Italian.
The extensive
appendix to the vocal
score includes the
additional arias and
newly composed movements
for the versions used in
the 1734 and 1736
performances.

Text: Carlo Sigismondo
Capece.
The Italian
oratorio La Resurrezione
(The Resurrection) was
written during
Handel’s time in
Rome. It was performed on
Easter Sunday 1708 with
great splendour and
extravagance by a large
orchestra conducted by
Arcangelo Corelli in the
Palazzo Bonelli, the
Roman palazzo of
Handel’s patron
the Marchese Francesco
Maria Ruspoli. In its
dramatic structure and
characterisation of the
protagonists, the work
displays a striking
affinity with Italian
opera. Lucifer’s
raging sixty fourth notes
call to mind the demon
characters in Venetian
opera and
Maddalena’s arias
are so full of expressive
power and virtuosity that
Handel later incorporated
one of them into his
opera Agrippina. The
unusual musical richness
of this work and the
virtuosic and masterly
shaping of the arias make
it a welcome addition to
any concert programme.
