First Lessons in Handel

Handel's keyboard works are more numerous, diverse and important than is generally realised, and the performer who is prepared to study them will find themselves amply rewarded by the discovery of their outstanding construction, melodic beauty and harmonic mastery. 

Quite apart from their own intrinsic value, they make great teaching material, and it is with this in mind that the composer has made this graded selection. For the development of rhythmical vitality, training of left hand technique, finger work and phrasing sense, they are unsurpassed.
