Handel Yearbook 2018

The Handel Yearbook 2018 was published by Bärenreiter. It includes contributions from the scholarly conference „Between Genius and Plagiarist. Handel’s Compositional Method and its Interpretations”, which took place in Halle in 2017. “The volume has become very extensive again with 471 pages. In terms of content, it is one of the most weighty in recent years, because it documents the state of research on the compositional process of Handel and the associated borrowing procedures and expands it with many new insights and interpretation approaches.” („Der Band ist mit 471 Seiten wieder sehr umfangreich geworden; inhaltlich ist er einer der gewichtigsten der vergangenen Jahre, weil er den Forschungsstand zum kompositorischen Prozess Händels und den damit verbundenen Entlehnungsverfahren dokumentiert und durch viele Neuerkenntnisse und Deutungsansätze erweitert.”, Wolfgang Hirschmann)

The Handel Yearbook can be purchased in book stores. Members of the George Frideric Handel Society receive a complimentary copy of the yearbook.
