Xerxes in Full Score by George Frideric Handel
One of Handel's rare ventures into comedy, Xerxes parodies the conventions of opera seria. Love triangles, swaggering heroism, and all manner of operatic pretensions receive a playful tweaking in a subtle treatment that never descends into farce. This new edition of Handel's innovative work offers an authoritative, practical, and inexpensive resource. Reprint of the F. W. Chrysander, 1884 edition. Table of Contents for Xerxes in Full Score
