Handel - For Kids - A Bilingual Edition (Paperback)

Bound for a bilingual (English, German) junior and a lover of the grand Baroque music, this book presents a detailed and illustrated biography with analytical summaries of the major works of a genius, who made his point. Every year across the world, the Messiah is performed for Christmas and Easter. Played in reprise, the First Part opening Mezzo softens any heart. Over the climax, when the chorus commences to Hallelujah and Handel's music thunders, traditionally the whole audience rises to their feet. That's a moving moment. This tradition was conceived in times of King George I. When the King first heard the oratorio, he stood up and everyone else followed. And the main reason of this glory was Handel's tough character. He would do what his heart would dictate, of course within the reasonable standards, and would do so with a non-moderated passion. With that very passion, he made the King of England stand up.
