"Israël en Égypte: Étude sur un oratorio de G.F. Hændel" by Maurice Bouchor is a musical analysis written during the late 19th century. This book dives into George Frideric Handel's oratorio "Israel in Egypt," exploring its themes, structure, and musical intricacies. It reflects the author's deep appreciation for the oratorio's grandeur and emotional depth, as well as its historical and cultural context. In the text, Bouchor provides an insightful examination of the oratorio's components, emphasizing the power of its choral passages and the character of the vocal solos. He describes the music's ability to convey the poignant journey of the Israelites from oppression in Egypt to liberation, punctuating significant moments with evocative descriptions of the performances he witnessed. Through detailed commentary on various musical sections, soloists, and orchestral arrangements, Bouchor highlights Handel’s genius in combining theatricality with religious fervor, ultimately presenting "Israël en Égypte" as a divine celebration of freedom and faith.
