SHEEP-FARMING in the Australian bush playing the violin to the Governor-General, cruising on a whaler, mutiny, capture by ferocious rebel Maoris-all these were among the lively experiences of the Irish composer of Maritana. He is not to be confused, by the way, with the William Wallace of our own times, composer of the Freebooter Songs, one of which we are shortly to hear. This Wallace was born in 1814 and died just over sixty years ago. He wrote, among other things, half a dozen Operas, but Maritana was the only really successful one.
JUST about 200 years ago Handel became a naturalized Englishman. A month later he produced the opera Scipio, from which we are to hear an Air.
It ran for only thirteen nights. Except for one or two numbers, it was a complete failure.
In the Air Hear me, ye winds and waves, we have a fine example of the force and dignity that
Handel could so well express in song.
CARISSIMI, the famous seventeenth-century writer of Oratorios and Cantatas, presents in this song not the common conception of the triumph of love, but the unusual one of the lover's emphatic renunciation of it, and his outburst of satisfaction at being freed from its power. ORCHESTRA
