Handel's Operas, 1704-1726
The first volume of this monumental study of Handel's operatic works, covering the first seventeen operas.
Handel's Operas, 1704-1726
'This volume is a monument to the source-critical method. It is a rigorous investigation of the bewilderingly abundant musical and literary sources of each opera, and its most lasting influence will be on all future editions of Handel's music.'
Festa Musicologica
George J. Buelow's distinguished career as author, translator, editor, and officer of numerous musical associations is celebrated in this collection of essays. The volume, planned by his colleagues in honor of his sixty-fifth birthday, concentrates on three of his active interests-Handel studies, vocal music and singers, and the history of music theory. The work concludes with an autobiographical sketch of the dedicatee's early life in Chicago and his formation as a musicologist.
New Mattheson Studies
This collection of essays brings together the current research on Johann Mattheson (1681-1764), an influential musician and chronicler of musical thought in eighteenth-century Germany. The essays explore the cultural climate of Hamburg during Mattheson's lifetime; Mattheson as a composer; Mattheson's relationship to his contemporaries; and Mattheson's influence on developing musical theories and aesthetics.
