Handel: Dettingen Te Deum | Händelfestspielorchester & Howard Arman, Marktkirche Halle, 2009

With bells and whistles: To mark the 250th anniversary of the death of George Frideric Handel, Howard Arman conducts a bombastic performance of the "Dettingen Te Deum" at the Marktkirche in Halle in the year 2009. Three choirs join forces accompanied by The English Concert and the Händelfestspielorchester – around 200 musicians perform in the chancel of this magnificent church. The "Dettingen Te Deum" (HWV 283) is a Christian song of praise to celebrate the victory of the English over the French at Dettingen in the year 1743. 00:15 We praise Thee, oh God 04:00 All the earth doth worship Thee 06:25 To Thee all angels cry aloud 08:38 To Thee Cherubim and Seraphim 11:45 The glorious company of the Apostles 14:00 Thou art the King of Glory 16:37 When Thou tookest upon Thee to deliver man 20:00 When Thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death 21:50 Thou sittest at the right hand of God 24:53 Sinfonia 25:23 We therefore pray Thee 26:26 Make them to be number'd with Thy Saints 27:42 Day by day we magnify Thee 30:45 Vouchsafe, oh Lord, to keep us this day without sin 32:22 Oh Lord, in Thee have I trusted The Dettingen Te Deum is a sacred choral work in the tradition of English choral music. Handel wrote a total of five "Te Deum" compositions – this is the last. It was written to give thanks for the victory of King George II's troops at the Battle of Dettingen. The world premiere took place at St James's Palace in London following the King's glorious return in November 1743. The text – a Christian hymn of praise – is derived from the "Book of Common Prayer" from 1662. George Frideric Handel was born in 1685 in Halle an der Saale and baptized in the Marktkirche or Market Church. After many successful musical years in Germany and Italy, after 1710 he was a regular visitor to London, where he composed many pieces for the royal court. Awarded citizenship in 1727, he's regarded today as Britain's most important and influential composer of the Baroque period. Until his death in the year 1759, he wrote a total of 42 operas and 25 oratorios. This performance of the "Dettingen Te Deum" in the Marktkirche in Halle took place as part of celebrations to mark the 250th anniversary of the death of the famous Baroque composer George Frideric Handel. The event brought together the MDR Rundfunkchor, the Hallenser Madrigalisten, the Händelfestspielchor and the Halle Opera Chorus. They were accompanied by The English Concert and the Händelfestspielorchester. As well as the "Dettingen Te Deum", the ensembles also repeated the entire program of the "Handel Commemoration Concert", performed in 1784 at London's Westminster Abbey in honor of the great musician, who had died 25 years previously.
