The vocal texts of the original four movements are taken from the Old and New Testaments (Book of Psalms, Prophets, Epistles of Paul). As is often the case with occasional works, the composer drew on music from earlier compositions in all movements – the fourth chorus, for example, is identical to the \"Hallelujah\" chorus from the \"Messiah\". for a later performance in 1753, Handel substantially expanded the work by three movements and revised parts of the first version. This later version constitutes an independent and arguably more appealing version of the anthem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Urtext edition based on the \"Halle Handel Edition\" offers the first scholarly-critical edition of the musical text of the 1753 version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContents:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVorwort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChorus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolo and Chorus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChorus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDuet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChorus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bärenreiter","offers":[{"title":"Vocal Score","offer_id":45910472294588,"sku":"BA10267-90","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vocal Score - Digital Download","offer_id":46870230139068,"sku":"BA10267-90D","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Full Score","offer_id":45910479732924,"sku":"BA10267","price":67.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Full Score - Digital Download","offer_id":46870222504124,"sku":"BA10267D","price":67.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Wind Set","offer_id":45910479765692,"sku":"BA10267-65","price":37.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Wind Set - Digital Download","offer_id":46870226206908,"sku":"BA10267-65D","price":37.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Choral Score","offer_id":45910472392892,"sku":"BA10267-91","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Choral Score - Digital Download","offer_id":46870231515324,"sku":"BA10267-91D","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Double Bass","offer_id":45910479896764,"sku":"BA10267-86","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Organ","offer_id":45910479929532,"sku":"BA10267-67","price":35.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Violin I","offer_id":45910479798460,"sku":"BA10267-74","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Violin II","offer_id":45910479831228,"sku":"BA10267-75","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Viola","offer_id":45910479863996,"sku":"BA10267-79","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Double Bass - Digital Download","offer_id":46870237872316,"sku":"BA10267-86D","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Viola - Digital Download","offer_id":46870229876924,"sku":"BA10267-79D","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Violin II - Digital Download","offer_id":46870229778620,"sku":"BA10267-75D","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Violin I - Digital Download","offer_id":46870228172988,"sku":"BA10267-74D","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Organ - Digital Download","offer_id":46870235676860,"sku":"BA10267-67D","price":35.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0606\/2823\/8524\/files\/9466458b39b12fbdd696a8195dd58783_0040ca02-bd70-4003-b2e3-27abb1817b07.jpg?v=1771294275","url":"https:\/\/www.barenreiter.us\/es\/products\/handel-foundling-hospital-anthem-hwv-268-barenreiter","provider":"Barenreiter US","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
