Description
The Creation is one of the most frequently performed oratorios, alongside Handel's Messiah. This edition presents the English text as Haydn intended, without the modifications of twentieth-century editions, and is the version used in his public renditions of the work using large forces. The keyboard reduction in this edition is by A. E. Müller, considered by Haydn himself to be the best and most idiomatic. For those interested in exploring the full score, a bibliography can be found within. Orchestral material and vocal scores are available for hire or purchase. This edition provides a unique insight into Haydn's intentions and the work's enduring popularity.
