Händel's complete 'Messiah' for piano solo...

Post by Kleinigkeiten »

Hey, everyone,

I wonder if anyone's got an edition of this one work, other than the Chrysander, of course, which I've already got and don't like that much because it's missing voices in several passages. I'm aware Händel revised the work quite a few times so, and to be more specific, I would love it if anyone's got the 1754 version.
Thanks.

Handel would not have written a version of Messiah for piano solo. Just sayin'. :mrgreen:

What I meant by '1754 version' is that I would like to get a full piano solo transcription of that version, not a piano solo transcription written by Händel...just saying :wink:
