Most music lovers have encountered George Frederick Handel through holiday-time renditions of the Messiah's "Hallelujah" chorus. And many of them know and love that oratorio on Christ's life, death, and resurrection, as well as a few other greatest hits like the orchestral Water Music and Royal Fireworks Music, and perhaps Judas Maccabeus or one of the other English oratorios. Yet his operas, for which he was widely known in his own time, are the province mainly of specialists in Baroque music, and the events of his life, even though they reflected some of the most important musical issues of the day, have never become as familiar as the careers of Bach or Mozart. Perhaps the single word that best describes his life and music is "cosmopolitan":

Raymond Leppard was among the most important and prolific British conductors of the 20th century, identified for many years by his work with the English Chamber Orchestra. He was a scholar and a noted film music composer, and both as scholar and performer, he played a major role in the revival of Baroque music worldwide. Raymond John Leppard was born in London on August 11, 1927, but grew up in Bath. At Trinity College, Cambridge, he studied viola and harpsichord, the latter an unusual course at the time. While at Trinity College, he conducted choirs and the Cambridge Philharmonic Society, and after graduating in 1952, he gravitated toward conducting.

This is Jonathan Freeman-Attwood’s tenth solo project for Linn, ‘re-imagining’ repertoire for trumpet and piano as it might have been had history been different. Handel for Trumpet follows similar lines to the previous recordings, going against the grain by presenting a variety of musical genres from major figures before the existence of a modern chromatic trumpet and a grand piano. The programme here is divided, relatively straightforwardly, between concertos and arias and duets (from nine different operas and oratorios), with the brief excursion of an abridged keyboard work from one of the eight ‘Great Suites’. Once again, Jonathan teams up with arranger Timothy Jones to offer versions that bring a new lease to these works. A welcome addition to the trumpet repertoire!
