Product Information

The Triumph of Time and Truth wurde von Händel am 11. März 1757 im Londoner Covent Garden Theatre herausgebracht. Das Werk wurde in jenem Jahr dreimal aufgeführt, und 1758 präsentierte er es zweimal in einer etwas umfangreicheren Fassung – in der letzten vollständigen Spielzeit unter seiner Leitung. Um jedoch seine Entstehungsgeschichte zurückzuverfolgen, die ebenso faszinierend ist wie die Musik reizvoll, muss man ganze fünfzig Jahre zurückgreifen....

Product-Information:


The Triumph of time and Truth was brought out by Handel on 11 March 1757 at Covent Garden Theatre, London. It was performed three times that year, and in a slightly enlarged form Handel presented it twice in 1758, the last complete season over which he presided. But to trace its history, which is as fascinating as its music is attractive, one must go back fully fifty years....

Rezensionen


'Enchanting music, performed with warmth and insight. An important addition to the current list of Handel recordings' (The Sunday Times)

'Much recommended' (The Daily Telegraph)

Press comments

A. H.Commert in orpheus 1 / 84:"Musikalisch enthält dieses hübsche Stück von 1738 bzw. 1758 einige sehr schöne Arien und weitgehend hübsche Musik. Denys Harlow hält sein kleines Orchester alert und rhyth- misch...Auch der wesentliche Teil des Solo- gesangs stimmt zufrieden."
