INSTRUMENTATION

GEORGE FRIDERIC HANDEL

Arranged by JACK BULLOCK (ASCAP)

PROGRAM NOTES

lU

r
e
a

The Oratorio, The Messiah, was composed by Handel in 1741 and 1742, and is considered Handels best known work. The
first performance was given in Dublin in 1742 and contained three parts. The Hallelujah Chorus came at the conclusion of
the second part. The orchestra was originally scored for two oboes, bassoon, two trumpets, timpani, strings and basso
continuo, probably a harpsichord. Although written for the Lenten season, parts of it are performed traditionally during
the Christmas season as well.

eg

P
L

The orchestral accompaniment was enlarged as needed by Handel to accommodate the orchestra that was performing
it. This arrangement for concert band is constructed using material from the choral parts as well as the original
instrumentation of the orchestra.

NOTES TO THE CONDUCTOR

Dynamic markings may be adjusted to balance your ensemble. However, the flugal sections used to accompany the
main themes should not dominate the overall balance. The short main themes taken from the original choral parts
should be given the focus.
Although the sixteenth note figures are not marked staccato, they should be performed in a baroque style, short
and clean.

Please note: Our band and orchestra music is now being collated by an automatic high-speed system.
The enclosed parts are now sorted by page count, rather than score order.
