Royal Splendour!



This performance is truly out of this world and the orchestra is one of my favorites! This is the first piece of "classical" music I turned on to when I was barely 11 years old. "Classical"? Handel wrote this work during the High Baroque period which ended roughly around 1750(the death of J.S.Bach). The next period was the Classical Period(Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, etc...). From now on I will refer to the periods as they are recognized by musicologists the world over as I discuss them.

Please listen to the complete performance and ENJOY!
