Handel s Water Music was composed in 1717 for the English King George I, who had requested new music for a concert on the River Thames. The King enjoyed the music so much that he demanded it be played in full twice more during the pleasure cruise! This is as festive a performance as I have heard... This will be a hard act to follow .
