@chenopus And Stradella, and Kaiser, and Corelli and so on. There was no copyright laws at this time. Besides, why should it be such a terrible ting to borrow good stuff from others? Much good music have been saved just because Handel and others "borrowed" it, music that otherwise would have been forgotten. Stradella is today remembered to a large degree beacause of Handel's borrowings for Israel in Egypt.

My favorite oratorio after Israel in Egypt..

... Handel knew A. Scarlatti, very well

This sound like the version by Raymond Leppard. Yes, I think it is. With Robert Tear, Janet Baker and Felicity Lott. Great stuff!

La overtura son 3 movimientos verdad? este es el segundo?

Great music and I love the horns too but it really needs to be more Vivace!

This is the great version by Maurice Abravanel?

I love the French Horns that start around 19 seconds in... as well as the tempo, I haven't heard it this slow before, it's lovely.
Evidently, He had a contact wih the splendor of Divinity beyond all the common of mortals, his haughty is totally normal, in that case...
