Hal Leonard Suite from Water Music - Handel/Vinson - Concert Band - Gr. 2
Composer: George Frederic Handel
Arranger: Johnnie Vinson
Format: Score and Parts
Instrumentation: Concert Band
Level: 2
The music of Handel is considered the culmination of the Baroque period of music history, and his Water Music (1717) has endured in popularity for nearly 300 years! Performed from a barge traveling on the River Thames, King George I is said to have liked the music so much that he ordered it repeated several times. Originally three suites each consisting of multiple movements, Johnnie Vinson has skillfully adapted this arrangement for young players using "Alla Hornpipe" from the Suite in D Major, and the "Air" and "Allegro" from the Suite in F Major.
Duration: 4:20
