Terpsicore, HWV 8b, is a French-style opera-ballet by George Frideric Handel (1685–1759), composed as a prologue to the revised 1734 version of his opera Il Pastor Fido (HWV 8c). In the story, Apollo summons Terpsicore, the Greek muse of dance and choral song, to demonstrate her art.
This Kalmus edition presents a suite of music from the ballet, edited by Hermann Muller, in conductor score and parts. The work premiered at Covent Garden in London on November 9, 1734, opening Handel’s first season of productions at the new theatre.
