A two-volume study of Handel’s operas

Winton Dean’s set brings together two chronological studies of Handel’s operatic works, spanning 1704 to 1741. Volume I covers 1704–1726 and was first published in 1995; Volume II examines the period from 1726 to 1741 and originally appeared in 2006. The paired volumes offer a sustained account of Handel’s operas across these years, with the development of opera as an art form also forming part of the set’s scope. The publisher describes this edition as a specially priced reissue of the two studies.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers studying Handel’s operatic works across the periods covered.
