Crudel tiranno amor (HWV 97) is the title of a work that Handel composed in 1721 and rewrote for a different combination of instruments in 1738. This cantata, consisting of three arias and two recitatives, was originally conceived for soprano, two oboes, strings and continuo. For the later version Handel altered the key and the melody and added a large number of embellishments. Nothing was known about it until it recently resurfaced in Munich. It is the only Handel manuscript that contains, in one of the recitatives, a complete and richly sonorous realization of the continuo part from the composerÆs own hand. Now this cantata is appearing in a high-quality facsimile that also functions as a practical edition with performance material. This première publication was supervised by Bertold Over, who discovered the source in a manuscript from the posthumous estate of Wilhelm Heinrich Riehl.
