Cantata in two parts-In 1736 Handel composed ?Alexander?s Feast? or ?The Power of Musick? a two-part cantata based on John Dryden?s poem of the same name.In 1790 at the suggestion of Baron Gottfried van Swieten Mozart arranged this work using a German translation of the poem made by Karl Wilhelm Ramler in 1770. As in other arrangements of Handelian works Mozart?s re-instrumentation leads to a change in the sound character of the work placing the composition in the tradition of the Viennese Classic.Urtext of the New Mozart EditionFull score (BA4527-01) vocal score (BA4527-90) available for salePerformance material available for hire (BA4527-72)
