About this product

Composed in 1740, L'Allegro, il Penseroso, ed il Moderato is Handel's setting of poetry by John Milton, with additional verses (in the third part of three) by Charles Jennens. This oratorio is a kind of moderated dialogue between two personalities - the merry and carefree, and the thoughtful and ruminative. Jennens added Inchil ModeratoInch - the moderate man who balances the other two types. It seems not to have been Handel's intention to instruct listeners as to the most favorable type. Instead, he must have been most attracted by Milton's poetry, and by the opportunity to compose the sort of pastoral entertainment which he had found so congenial in earlier compositions. Sometimes the third part, entirely set to verses by Jennens, is dropped. This was the case even in Handel's time; it was felt that Jennens could not hold a candle to Milton. Some of the work's first recordings (for example, a 1960 version conducted by Sir David Willcocks) do the same, and also rearrange the remaining movements. This new version is given complete, however. Album Tracks 1. A Tempo Giusto/Allegro/Adagio - Joachim Carlos Martini 2. Hence, Loathed Meloncholy - Knut Schoch 3. Henc, Vain Deluding Joys - Linda Perillo 4. Come, Thou Goddess Fair and Free - Barbara Hannigan 5. Come Rather, Goddes, Sage and Holy - Linda Perillo 6. Haste Thee, Nymph - Chorus 7. Come and Trip It - Chorus 8. Come, Pensive Nun - Linda Perillo 9. Come, But Keep Thy Wonted State - Linda Perillo 10. There, Held in Holy Passion Still/Join with Thee - Chorus 11. Hence, Loathed Melancholy - Knut Schoch 12. Mirth, Admit Me of Thy Crew - Barbara Hannigan 13. First and Chief, on Golden Wing - Linda Perillo 14. Sweet Bird - Linda Perillo 15. If I Give Thee Hounour Due - Stephan MacLeod 16. Mirth, Admit Me of Thy Crew - Stephan MacLeod 17. Oft, on a Plat of Rising Ground - Linda Perillo
