 "Minor Works" is more like it September 9, 2008

Both Amazon and Brilliant Classics' own site neglect to specify the contents. Most instrumental works are here (except keyboard suites) but of over 20 English oratorios, the crown of Handel's work, only 3 (Messiah, Jephtha, and Belshazzar - the last sung in German!)and of 44 Italian operas only 3 (Imeneo, Faramondo, and Rinaldo). More than half the CDs have less than 60 minutes of music, and there are no texts for the 25 CDs of vocal music. Performers, mostly obscure, are identified by name only, no background information. Final six CDs are the Complete Chamber Music, available in a separate box set from Brilliant.

Good performances, good fidelity and recordings, good selection but not comprehensive. No Samson & Delilah, no Solomon, no Julius Caesar etc.
