The Handel Yearbook ( HJb ) is a musicological journal in honor of the composer Georg Friedrich Handel , which is published annually by the international Georg Friedrich Handel Society eV in conjunction with the Handel House Foundation in Halle (Saale). The “scientific secretary” of the Handel Society is also the editor of the yearbook, and since 2011 the musicologist Annette Landgraf .
publishing company
The yearbook was initially published by the Hanoverian musicologist Rudolf Steglich for the new Handel Society in Leipzig, which was founded in 1925 by Hermann Abert . From 1928 to 1933 it was published in six volumes by Breitkopf & Härtel in Leipzig.
From 1955 it was published by the Georg Friedrich Händel Society as a new series in the German Publishing House for Music in Leipzig. The first four volumes of the new series can be counted twice as a continuation of the old series. From 1992 to 1995 the Studio-Verlag in Cologne was the responsible publisher.
Since then the yearbook has been published by Bärenreiter-Verlag in Kassel u. a. In 2008 the Handel House Foundation in Halle (Saale) joined as a partner.
content
Articles in the Handel Yearbook appear predominantly in German , some in English . While between 1967 and 1976 only occasional contributions to the international scientific conferences held on the occasion of the Handel Festival in Halle (Saale) were published in the yearbook , regular reports have been published since 1989. In addition, the public festive lectures as part of the Handel Festival will be printed. In addition, free research contributions are considered. The economist Manfred Rätzer continues the performance statistics of the operas and oratorios by the baroque composer in the yearbook. The volumes also contain the accounts of the association president. Various new publications on the topic of Handel are also compiled, including new volumes from the Halle Handel Edition (HHA; as a critical complete edition).
