Review
“As we might expect from a conductor of Glover’s experience, her descriptions of Handel’s music―of how the composer married text with sound to such extraordinary effect―are deeply perceptive. Her explanations of operatic form are clear and deft.†- The American Scholar“Glover’s account of Handel in London examines how a German musician of strong opinions and unpredictable temperament captured the rhythms of a world capital. The merit of Handel in London is to focus on the mechanics and context of how Handel conceived and achieved music of deathless fascination. Ms. Glover, the first woman music director of a London orchestra when she led the London Mozart Players in the 1980s, has conducted more than 100 ‘Messiahs’; she ought to know.†- Wall Street Journal“Grover brings all her knowledge and experience to bear in this thorough and revealing work about the prolific and prodigious George Frideric Handel. Lush and illuminating―a lovely structure built on a solid foundation of research, expertise, and affection.†- Kirkus Reviews (starred)“Glover narrates with rich detail the musical life of George Frideric Handel in this lively biography. Glover’s stirring and vibrant biography captures Handel’s remarkable output and his breathtaking innovation.†- Publishers Weekly (starred)“Glover conjures up an extraordinary past so convincingly that its wonders seem to stray off the page and into our present. Every detail―of business and of manners; of royalty and politics―enriches her portrait of a labyrinthine society while each insight illuminates the workings of genius.†- Barnes & Noble Review“A biography of such gusto and brilliance that it is as pleasurable as informative. Glover illuminates every aspect of Handel’s work and describes the plots and musical distinctions of most of the operas and oratorios so fetchingly that the reader itches to hear and see them. She also brings Handel’s times and most constant collaborators, sponsors, and antagonists to vivid life as she keeps the rather-elusive maestro, who wrote almost nothing about himself, firmly in focus.†- Booklist (starred)“One of the most intriguing aspects of this biography is Handel’s relations with members of the British monarchy, who offered continuing financial support for his musical aspirations. Another strength is its description of the cultural and political setting in which Handel worked. Recommended for readers who wish to know more about Handel as an empresario for his own works.†- Library Journal

As a Chicagoan, I have heard Handel conducted by the author; currently Director of the "Music of the Baroque" orchestra and chorus. She is also an excellent author, bringing things to life. Being a performing musician gives her a unique perspective. You get a real picture of 18th century London and Handel 's place in it. Also read her other book "Mozart 's Women" which is on Amazon.
I have had a great love for Handel's music for more than 50 years now. During those years I have had the good fortune to read a great many books about the man and his music, including all the obvious ones (30+). Yet here comes along a new journey through his musical life that is so different that it kept my eyes glued to my kindle and my ears glued to my stereo. Jane Glover has the gift of picking you up and dropping you right into the life of London of Handel's time and meet the characters that inspire/annoy/love him. You get to know many of the people around him, the interactions between them and the social times, peace, wars etc. Most of all, she makes you hum the music when she picks out the various arias and choruses of the many operas and oratorios, and while you're humming in your mind, makes you aware of some of their inner meanings you might not have thought of before. I am not a musician. I cannot even read music easily, but I know most of Handel's vocal music intimately. There is an immense love in the book of and for the music of this incredible genius that even to this day, many people write off as the man that just wrote the Water Music and Messiah. I would recommend this book to every lover of Handel's music. You will learn so much, and you will be so grateful. We owe Jane Glover a big THANK YOU.
Well told story of Handel’s life. Glover’s writing is both lyrical and informative, hardly surprising, I suppose, coming from a talented musician.
