We have provided the full versions of some other important vocal works by Handel featured in this lesson. This is not a required step, but is provided for anyone who would like to watch pieces in their entirety.
If you’d like to listen to the complete oratorio of Saul, here is the complete performance by the ChÅ“ur de Chambre de Namur (The Chamber Choir of Namur, France). They are the same performers who were featured in the lesson “Handel’s Vocal Music”. You can access their YouTube channel here.
You may want to read the libretto (text) for reference. It is available here online.
