G.F. Handel: Complete Sonatas For Recorder And Continuo (Barenreiter Urtext Edition)

An authoritative Urtext edition of the six Sonatas for Recorder and Continuo, written by Handel between the years of 1724 and 1726.

The pieces are part of a larger collection of Sonatas written by Handel around this time, connected to the great composer's employment as music-master to Princesses Anne and Caroline, daughters of the future King George II. This Urtext edition is derived from Handel's original manuscripts, with full editorial details and a detailed discussion of the differing editions as they have existed over the years. Separate performance parts are included for the solo Recorder and the figured Bass, alongside the full Piano/Keyboard score. Edited by Terence Best.
