Tidings of the King: A Translation and Ethnohistorical Analysis of the Rayavacakamu eBooks & eLearning

Posted by DZ123 at March 16, 2010

The author first proves that the work wasn't of the age of Krishna Deva Raya but was written much later. Then he dissects it piece by piece to reveal the times of the original author and his motivations. The historical context of the King is also provided in the book, and is quite illuminating. The book is a result of thorough research on this work of fiction, which is the original text.

Robert King, The King's Consort - George Frideric Handel: Alexander Balus (1997) Music

Posted by ArlegZ at Feb. 19, 2022

Alexander Balus brings to completion The King's Consort's series of Handel's four 'military' oratorios (the other three being Judas Maccabaeus, The Occasional Oratorio, and Joshua).
The story is a somewhat embellished retelling of chapters 10 and 11 from the first book of the Apocryphal Maccabees and involves complicated intrigues between the Jews, Syrians and Egyptians in the second century BC. To cut a long story short, Alexander Balus, King of Syria, is eventually defeated in battle by Ptolomee of Egypt and then killed by an Arab; but Ptolomee himself dies just three days later allowing Jonathan, the Chief of the Jews, to remind us of the fate of those who do not believe in the One God.

Robert King, The King’s Consort, New College Choir, Oxford - George Frideric Handel: Deborah (1993) Music

Posted by ArlegZ at Feb. 22, 2022

‘Deborah contains some of the most glorious music Handel ever wrote. Even if many of the numbers have been recycled from earlier works, the invention is still staggering. Handel devotees can thus amuse themselves spotting the tunes while everyone else can revel in the sumptuous scoring and the sheer vitality and humanity of the piece, all superbly conveyed in Robert King's recording’.

King's College Choir, Cambridge Among England's famed university choirs, the King's College Choir of Cambridge has both one of the deepest histories and some of the most visible present-day activities. Its annual broadcasts of the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols, begun in 1918, have been an integral part of Christmas celebrations in many countries. The Choir of King's College was founded in 1441 by England's King Henry VI as the resident ensemble of King's College Chapel, a status it continues to hold today. The choir shrank during some of the tumultuous events of the 15th through the 17th centuries but continued to operate. By the early 20th century, it had reached its present complement of 30 members: 16 boy choristers and 14 adult choral scholars. There are also two associated organ scholars; choral scholars and organ scholars are Cambridge students who perform in exchange for discounted tuition.

Handel - The Masterworks 30 CDs [2009] Music

Posted by Sowulo at July 20, 2015

I do think that this Decca set is arguably the best compilation reissue of such a bulk of Handel work which has been released in a long time, just in time to commemorate the two hundred fiftieth anniversary of the passing of il caro Sassone. There is a lot in this box, absence of libretti notwithstanding. The enclosed booklet is essential to navigate you through the track listings and timings and little else but a small general essay on GFH.
