Die originale Orchesterfassung seines Requiem hat Brahms für einen Chor von über 200 Sängern konzipiert. Die meisten Aufführungen werden mit viel wenigerSängern realisiert, sodass es zu einem deutlichen Ungleichgewicht zu dem sehr starkbesetzten Orchester kommt. Die Bearbeitung für Kammerensemble entschärft dieseProblematik und macht es auch Chören mit kleinem Budget möglich, dieses einmalige Meisterwerk aufzuführen. Der Instrumentation liegen zwei Standardbesetzungen(Streich- und Bläserquintett) zugrunde. Aufeinander eingespielte Instrumentalistenbzw. Ensembles lassen sich sicherlich gerne als Mitwirkende gewinnen.

Brahms conceived the original orchestral version of his Requiem for a choir with over 200 singers. Most performances of the work will be sung with far fewer singers, resulting in a clear imbalance between the larger orchestra and smaller choir.The present arrangement for chamber ensemble minimizes this problem and makesit possible for choirs with modest budgets to perform this unsurpassed masterpiece.The instrumentation is based on a scoring for two standard instrumental groups(string- and wind quintets). Surely instrumentalists or ensembles playing together will be happy to participate in a performance of this chamber version of the Requiem.

Handel entered the date 22 August 1741 into the Messiahautograph as the starting date of the composition. At thetime, the libretto by Charles Jennens (1700–1773) hadbeen already in his possession for quite a while, but Handelonly started work on it when the possibility of a perform-ance presented itself. This came in the form of an invitationfrom William Cavendish, the Duke of Devonshire, to giveseveral concerts in Dublin during the coming winter sea-son.

At the beginning of November 1741 Handel traveled fromLondon to Ireland, without having any precise knowledge ofperformance conditions there. In contrast to the brief time ittook to compose the music, it was over another five monthsbefore the premiere was given on 13 April 1742.

The libretto of the tripartite work is a compilation of Bibli-cal, predominantly Old Testament quotations which man-ages without freely invented material. It is evident fromthe arrangement of the verses from the Scriptures that Jen-nens was an opponent of so-called deism, which was thena subject of heated debate. Taking the work as a whole,one can see the central idea on which each of the threeparts is based. In the first part this is the proclamation ofthe Messiah, his birth, and the fulfilment of the prophecies.The second part deals with his suffering, his ascent intoHeaven, and the defeat of the heathen, while the third partis about the Last Judgement and the salvation of mankindthrough the resurrected Christ. Complementing the reci-tatives and arias for the solo singers, the choir is given amajor role.

Handel himself performed Messiah a number of times. Aswas then customary, he worked in minor changes for laterperformances. This was because different soloists, for ex-ample, would request the transposing of an aria into a dif-ferent register, as can be inferred from the singers’ namesthat Handel entered in his conducting score in the move-ments concerned. If he had any other reasons for modify-ing arias, they are, unfortunately, unknown.

The choral and orchestral forces

Handel’s oratorios were composed for a small choir and asmall orchestral ensemble, but after his death they wereperformed with increasingly larger forces. Thus over 500people took part in the performance of Messiah given inWestminster Abbey during the 1784 Commemoration Fes-tival. The Messiah premiere conducted by Handel in Dublinon 13 April 1742, on the other hand, featured a choir ofonly twenty singers, comprising members of Dublin’s ChristChurch Choir and the St. Patrick’s Cathedral Choir.

In 1749 directions were inserted in the conducting scorewhich differentiate between ‘con rip(ieno)’ and ‘senza rip.’in the orchestra. In other words, the orchestral forces hadbecome too large in the meantime for all the players to ac-company the soloists.

In order to achieve transparency in the polyphonic pas-sages in Handel’s Messiah, it is advisable to follow the‘senza’ and ‘con ripieno’ directions when employing largechoral and orchestral forces. Even more graduations can beadded for the choir, e.g., in coloratura passages, so as toallow these to be these sung using different forces.

Handel gives no indication in Messiah about when theharpsichord, the organ or both these instruments shouldbe used. Hence flexibility should be shown in the deploy-ment of keyboard instruments, and conductors must usetheir discretion. Not every aria needs to be accompaniedby a harpsichord, and not every chorus by the organ.

Ornaments in Handel’s music

Even in the 18th century not all singers and instrumental-ists could improvise ornaments. Of course there were andare exceptional musicians for whom “à l’improviste” is fea-sible, but we know that already in Handel’s time, singerswould ask the composer or somebody else with the neces-sary ability to write out their ornaments, added notes, runsand suspensions. Therefore, in the present vocal score Ihave indicated simple ornaments in passages where thesewere usually improvised. But they should be regarded sole-ly as suggestions which may be changed and added to atthe user’s discretion. In Da Capo Arias ornamentation ofthe A-section should be executed only when it is repeated.

Helmuth Rilling: Messiah

This book on Handel’s Messiah reflects Helmuth Rilling’s remar-kable skills, both as a conductor and as an educator. It is literally a ’study-guide’ for conductors and performers which shows the step-by-step thought process Rilling uses in preparing a score. More importantly, Rilling challenges the reader to probe Handel’s thinking – to consider ways of more effectively communicating the deeper layers of meaning found within this masterwork.

In the vocal score Ton Koopman has – as a suggestion for the singers – indicated simple ornaments in passages where these were usually improvised.
