For many years the Handel Organ Concertos were considered to be suitable material for exhibiting mammoth nineteenth-century organs at their full power; sometimes assisted by large orchestras, more often left to their own resources in special arrangements allowing the ecclesiastical soloist to dispense with any such frivolous secular accompaniment. Our own day has rescued them; it will fairly cheerfully allow their performance on organs that Handel would have recognised as such, in a style he would have comprehended, and with something like the orchestral colouring he first envisaged.
