A popular and generous figure on the Cambridge academic scene,
Sedley Taylor (1834 1920) used his proficiency both in music and in
European languages to render Continental musical scholarship
accessible to British readers. In this book, originally published
in 1906, Taylor draws on the work of Chrysander and Seiffert to
display clearly the influence on Handel by a number of lesser-known
composers including Habermann, Kerl and Clari. Handel's musical
inspirations were the subject of much debate, with Samuel Wesley
accusing him of 'establishing a Reputation wholly constituted upon
the spoils of the Continent'. This book will be of value to anyone
with an interest in musical history and the contested originality
of Handel."
