Reviews of this publication:

* George Frideric Handel

During Handel’s lifetime Giulio Cesare in Egitto was among his most
successful operas.
Today it is still one of the most frequently performed, owing to the
rich variety of its scenes and
its remarkably inventive arias and ensembles, which embellish the
underlying affects with
virtuoso aplomb.

The piano writing contains the musical numbers from the main version
and observes the
editorial decisions in Zschoch’s volume, thereby making it possible
to prepare authentic
performances of what is perhaps Handel’s most popular opera.

- Vocal score of the main version, based on the Urtext from the
“Halle Handel Edition”

- Clear, easy-to-play piano reduction

- Italian text underlaid with newly revised singable German
translation

- German/English preface with information on performance history and
editorial principles
