for SATB soloists, SATB choir, and orchestra There is no single
definitive version of Messiah. Handel continued to make revisions
to the score throughout his life either to improve it or to suit
the abilities of individual performers or the needs of an occasion.
This edition presents the standard version (with which most people
are familiar) complete with a new, practical piano reduction. The
appendix contains most of Handel's alternative movements and
transpositions. The full score includes all the alternative
movements and transpositions in their correct sequence and all
material is signposted clearly and cross-referenced with the vocal
score. Clifford Bartlett provides a text that is as close as
possible to the sources, yet is presented with performers' needs in
mind. Both full and vocal scores provide guidance on performance
practice, and the vocal score includes ance piano/organ reduction
suitable for both rehearsal purposes and performance without
orchestra. Complete orchestral material and vocal scores are
available on hire/rental,
