Dixit Dominus HWV 232 (Psalm 109) 韓德爾 詩篇 騎熊士版

約 1707 年，亨德爾在義大利期間以《詩篇》第 109 篇為藍本創作了著名的《道明斯特》（Dixit Dominus）。雖然當時他只有 22 歲，但這部作品已經展示了他廣泛的作曲能力，這些能力後來在他的歌劇和清唱劇中得到了充分體現。這部作品的核心是六個合唱樂章，其複調結構與 17 世紀的德國合唱音樂密切相關"

原文簡介:
Handel wrote the famous “Dixit Dominus” with the text of Psalm 109 during his time in Italy in c. 1707. Although he was only 22 years old, the work already demonstrates his wide spectrum of compositional abilities which are later fully realized in his operas and oratorios. Central to this work are the six choral movements, which – with their polyphonic structure – are closely related to German choral music of the 17th century.

The first Urtext edition BA 4002 based on the “Halle Handel Edition” was published in 1960. At that time no critical commentary was published so that in cases of doubt, the basis on which editorial decisions were made was not officially recorded. A new complete edition volume (BA 10704/01), due to be published in 2013 will include a detailed foreword providing information on the genesis and the first performance of this work as well as information on the psalm on which this work is based and on performance practice. In addition several facsimiles pages will be included, giving a view into the source material. The critical commentary will provide a detailed insight into all the available sources and how they have been passed down.

This newly revised Urtext performing edition offers a thorough revision of this frequently-performed work and meets all the requisites of a scholarly-critical edition. Former readings in the old edition regarding a small number of pitches, but mostly basso continuo figures and the underlying text have now been able to be amended on the basis of the new findings. In the new edition the work appears in nine movements – no longer eight – which reflects the composer's intentions. The new performance material is not compatible with the old one.
