He had now been a full twelvemonth in England, and it was time for him to think of returning to Hanover. When he took leave of the Queen at her court, and exprefled his fenfe of the favours conferred on him, her Majefty was pleafed to add to them by large prefents, and to intimate her defire of feeing him again. Not a little flattered with fuch marks of approbation from fo illuftrious a perfonage, he promifed to return, the moment he could obtain permiflion from the Prince, in whofe fervice he was retained. .; -. . .:, . .... Soon Soon after his return to Hanover he made twelve chamber Duettos for the practice of the late Queen, then electoral Princefs. The character of thefe is well known to the judges in Mufic. The words for them were written by the Abbate Mauro Hortensio, who had not difdained on other occafions to minifter to the mafter* of harmony. . Befides thefe Duettos (a fpeciet of compofition of which the Prin? cefs and court were particularly fond) he compofed variety of other things for voices and inftruments.

Download or read book George Frideric Handel: A Life with Friends written by Ellen T. Harris and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During his lifetime, the sounds of Handel’s music reached from court to theater, echoed in cathedrals, and filled crowded taverns, but the man himself—known to most as the composer of Messiah—is a bit of a mystery. Though he took meticulous care of his musical manuscripts and even provided for their preservation on his death, very little of an intimate nature survives. One document—Handel’s will—offers us a narrow window into his personal life. In it, he remembers not only family and close colleagues but also neighborhood friends. In search of the private man behind the public figure, Ellen T. Harris has spent years tracking down the letters, diaries, personal accounts, legal cases, and other documents connected to these bequests. The result is a tightly woven tapestry of London in the first half of the eighteenth century, one that interlaces vibrant descriptions of Handel’s music with stories of loyalty, cunning, and betrayal. With this wholly new approach, Harris has achieved something greater than biography. Layering the interconnecting stories of Handel’s friends like the subjects and countersubjects of a fugue, Harris introduces us to an ambitious, shrewd, generous, brilliant, and flawed man, hiding in full view behind his public persona.
