This anthology represents scholarly literature devoted to Handel
over the last few decades, and contains different kinds of studies
of the composer's biography, operatic career, singers, librettists,
and his relationship with the music of other composers. Case
studies range from recent research that transforms our knowledge of
large-scale English works to an interdisciplinary exploration of an
individual opera aria. Designed to bring easy and convenient access
to students, performers and music lovers, the wide-ranging articles
are selected by David Vickers (co-editor of the recent Cambridge
Handel Encyclopedia) from diverse sources - not only familiar
important journals, but also specialist yearbooks, festschrifts,
not easily accessible newsletters, conference proceedings and
exhibition catalogues. Many of these represent an up-to-date
understanding of modern Handel studies, deal with fascinating
biographical issues (such as the composer's art collection, his
chronic health problems, and the nature of popular anecdotal
evidence), and fill gaps in the mainstream Handelian literature.
