This oratorio is a kind of moderated dialogue between two personalities - the merry and carefree, and the thoughtful and ruminative. Jennens added \"il Moderato\" - the moderate man who balances the other two types. It seems not to have been Handel's intention to instruct listeners as to the most favorable type. Instead, he must have been most attracted by Milton's poetry, and by the opportunity to compose the sort of pastoral entertainment which he had found so congenial in earlier compositions. Sometimes the third part, entirely set to verses by Jennens, is dropped. This was the case even in Handel's time; it was felt that Jennens could not hold a candle to Milton. Some of the work's first recordings (for example, a 1960 version conducted by Sir David Willcocks) do the same, and also rearrange the remaining movements. This new version is given complete, however.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 A Tempo Giusto\/Allegro\/Adagio - Joachim Carlos Martini \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Hence, Loathed Meloncholy - Knut Schoch \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Henc, Vain Deluding Joys - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Come, Thou Goddess Fair and Free - Barbara Hannigan \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Come Rather, Goddes, Sage and Holy - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Haste Thee, Nymph - Chorus \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Come and Trip It - Chorus \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Come, Pensive Nun - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Come, But Keep Thy Wonted State - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e1.10 There, Held in Holy Passion Still\/Join with Thee - Chorus \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Hence, Loathed Melancholy - Knut Schoch \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Mirth, Admit Me of Thy Crew - Barbara Hannigan \u003cbr\u003e1.13 First and Chief, on Golden Wing - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e1.14 Sweet Bird - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e1.15 If I Give Thee Hounour Due - Stephan MacLeod \u003cbr\u003e1.16 Mirth, Admit Me of Thy Crew - Stephan MacLeod \u003cbr\u003e1.17 Oft, on a Plat of Rising Ground - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e1.18 Far from All Resort of Mirth - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e1.19 If I Give Thee Honour Due - Knut Schoch \u003cbr\u003e1.20 Let Me Wander Not Unseen - Knut Schoch \u003cbr\u003e1.21 Straight Mine Eye - Barbara Hannigan \u003cbr\u003e1.22 Mountains, on Whose Barren Breast - Stephan MacLeod \u003cbr\u003e1.23 Or Let the Merry Bells Ring Around\/And Young and Old Come Forth to Play - Chorus \u003cbr\u003e2.1 Larghetto\/Polonaise - Joachim Carlos Martini \u003cbr\u003e2.2 Hence, Vain Deluding Joys - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e2.3 Sometimes Let Gorgeous Tragedy - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e2.4 But Oh, Sad Virgin - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e2.5 Thus, Night, Oft See Me - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e2.6 Populous Cities Please Me Then - Chorus \u003cbr\u003e2.7 There Let Hymen Oft Appear - Barbara Hannigan \u003cbr\u003e2.8 Me, When the Sun Begins to Fling - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e2.9 Hide Me from Day's Garish Eye - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e2.10 I'll to the Well-Trod Stage Anon - Knut Schoch \u003cbr\u003e2.11 And Ever Against Eating Cares - Barbara Hannigan \u003cbr\u003e2.12 Orpheus Self May Have His Head - Barbara Hannigan \u003cbr\u003e2.13 These Delights If Thou Canst Give - Chorus \u003cbr\u003e2.14 But Let My Due Feet Never Fail - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e2.15 There Let the Pealing Organ Blow - Chorus \u003cbr\u003e2.16 May at Last My Weary Age - Linda Perillo \u003cbr\u003e2.17 These Pleasures, Meloncholy, Give - Chorus \u003cbr\u003e2.18 Largetto\/Fuga - Joachim Carlos Martini \u003cbr\u003e2.19 Hence!
