Handel's Oratorio, Belshazzar, is a musical work composed by the renowned German-British composer, George Frideric Handel, in 1873. The oratorio is based on the biblical story of Belshazzar, the Babylonian king who defiled the vessels of the temple of Jerusalem and was punished by God. The work is divided into three parts and features arias, recitatives, and choruses that depict the story of Belshazzar's downfall. The music is characterized by Handel's signature style of Baroque music, with intricate melodies and harmonies that showcase the beauty and complexity of the story. The oratorio is often performed in concert halls and churches around the world, and is considered one of Handel's masterpieces.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
