Scott Ross - George Frideric Handel: 8 suites pour clavecin [1720] (1992)

In the early decades of the 18th century, Amsterdam was one of the most important publishing cities in the world. Vivaldi, Corelli, Albinoni and Locatelli all chose to publish in Amsterdam rather than in Venice because of the superior quality of Amsterdam publications. But pirate copies soon came on the market, for which the composer did not receive a penny. In 1719 – from the presses of the reputable publisher Roger no less – an unauthorised version of a number of Handel’s pieces for harpsichord appeared. In 1720 Handel responded with an edition of his own:
‘I have been obliged to publish some of the following Lessons, because surrepticious and incorrect Copies of them had got Abroad. I have added several new ones to make the Work more useful, which if it meets with a favourable Reception; I will still proceed to publish more, reckoning it my duty, with my Small Talent, to serve a Nation from which I have receiv’d so Generous a protection.’
The ‘Suites de pièces pour le clavecin – Premier volume’
Handel thus brought together new and old material, but just what was old and what was new we do not know. Probably some of the work dated from his student days in Germany, some from his years in Italy, and the new material from his time in London. The German folksongs in the Air of the Suite in d [track 5] and the Passacaille from the Suite in g [track 16] could well have been composed in his German years, as could some of the Fugues. The Suite in F, with its variation of Adagios and Allegros, takes the form of an Italian Sonata da Chiesa – could the entire Suite have been composed in Italy? Then the opening sections of the Suite in d [track 1] and the one in g [track 11] in particular sound very French. However, they could equally have been written in London.
The Suites HWV 323 to HWV 433 are known collectively as the ‘Grand Suites’. A showcase of Handel’s ability, they reveal him to be a master of every European style. The pieces were hugely popular and were even republished. Handel was apparently pleased with them himself; for one thing, he was later to use the Presto from the Suite in d [track 6] as the closing section of the Concerto Grosso Op. 3 No. 6. The harpsichord pieces are a match for the very best work for the instrument by his contemporaries.
