Handel "Dixit Dominus" continuo
The accompanist for my community chorus is looking for a realization of the figured bass for Handel's "Dixit Dominus." Does anyone know if one is available in print or for download? I've been searching online, to no avail.
Re: Handel "Dixit Dominus" continuo
This might be a good opportunity for your accompanist to learn playing figured bass. A superficous Google search brings up some brief introductions:
For Theorbo or Archlute, I would recommend to read Nigel North: "Continuo Playing on the Lute, Archlute and Theorbo", which is a decent textbook (though I find the sections named "practical steps" with "liding shapes" far from useful, but that is a matter of taste). For Organ, I am sure that other forum members can recommend a good book.
Hope this helps, Chris
