HANDEL: Water Music / Music for the Royal Fireworks

As chief musician to the British monarchy, it was Handel’s duty to grace courtly life with appropriate music. This defines the character of many of his famous works. The ‘Water Music’ accompanied relaxing royal boat trip along the river Thames, while the ‘Music for the Royal Fireworks’ was composed to celebrate a military victory.
