What greater gift can there be for a recorder player, than Handel's Sonatas for recorder and basso continuo? Having loved the masterpiece since she came across it in her studies, Muriel Rochat Rienth simply hoped that someday, she would have the opportunity to record this opus magnum.

HANDEL: Te Deum, HWV 283, "Dettingen"

Handel: Water Music - Recreating A Royal Spectacular

Handel: Serse, HWV 40 (Recorded 1962)

George Frideric Handel’s three-act oratorio Samson is considered one of his very best dramatic works. The arias from the work, “Let the bright Seraphim” and “Total eclipse” are often performed in concert separately from the rest of the work. Handel began the work immediately after finishing Messiah. The libretto is by Newburgh Hamilton, who based it on Milton’s Samson Agonistes, which in turn is based on the Biblical figure Samson from the Book of Judges. This album is a previously unreleased recording which was made on September 18, 1955, and features legendary vocalists like Ernst Haefliger, Maria Stader, Marga Hoffgen, Kim Borg, Heinz Rehfuss, and Maria Reith.
