Handel — Vocal Music

NB: Search for text using your browser's search facility, usually Ctrl+F.

Scores marked P derive from Chrysander's edition (Händel- Gesellschaft), though often with corrections. When Novello vocal scores exist, movement and bar numbers generally agree with them. Unless marked B4, scores are A4 format — larger than the Gregg & Kalmus study scores, but smaller than the original Chrysander edition; B4-size scores can be supplied at additional cost. A4 scores may be used as vocal scores if altos and tenors can read C clefs.
