Abstract
George Frideric Handel’s music is not performed as prominently as that of his peers of his time. This research project aims to achieve the following objectives: a. To analyze Handel's cantatas in terms of vocal range, ornamentation, and technical challenges. b. To identify the specialized vocal techniques in the Baroque era and skills needed for the interpretation of Handel's cantatas and why its subtle nature makes it inaccessible to singers and audiences.
