- First Urtext edition
- Includes a Foreword (Eng/Ger)
The “Dettinger Te Deum” was written to celebrate England’s victory over the French at the Battle of Dettingen.
It is Handel’s last and most successful setting of the “Te Deum” and reveals a deep understanding of the English church music tradition.
The sound impact of this broadly conceived work is governed by the choirs in an almost theatrical exegesis of the text. Particularly striking are several borrowings from the “Messiah” which Handel had just completed.
This edition, edited by Baroque specialist Amanda Babington, is based on the Urtext from the “Halle Handel Edition”.

"Dettinger Te Deum"은 데팅겐 전투에서 프랑스군에 대한 영국의 승리를 기념하기 위해 작곡되었습니다.
헨델이 "Te Deum"을 편곡한 마지막이자 가장 성공적인 작품으로, 영국 교회 음악 전통에 대한 깊은 이해를 보여줍니다.
이 폭넓은 구상으로 구성된 작품의 음향적 임팩트는 합창단이 가사를 거의 연극적으로 해석하는 방식으로 구현됩니다. 특히 헨델이 막 완성한 "메시아"에서 여러 부분을 차용한 것이 눈에 띕니다.
바로크 전문가 아만다 바빙턴이 편집한 이 판은 "할레 헨델 판 Urtext"을 기반으로 합니다.
작곡가 Handel, George Frideric (1685-1759)
