Editorial Reviews

"... Hull's erudite translation gives an informative insight into biographical facts and the musical pieces composed by Handel including his operas, oratorios and chamber music. While Handel will be of interest to students of music and musical history and is unreservedly recommended for community, college, and university library biography collections, it should [also] be noted for personal reading lists..." — Midwest Book Review, USA, November 2018
