Handel - Donald (Professor Burrows - Bog

Handel's music forms one of the peaks of the Baroque style, and his career combined the benefits of patronage with a sturdy independence. This biography provides a comprehensive and balanced account of both the man and his music, drawing on the unusually rich legacy of contemporary documentary and musical sources. This newly revised edition of Handel incorporates material resulting from a recent resurgance in scholarly interest in and performances of Handel and his
music.
