Description:
The ANACROUSE collection offers novice and experienced pianists alike a wide choice of classical works, from the Renaissance to the modern era.
We have set ourselves the goal of offering both "must-haves" from the classical repertoire and pieces by sometimes forgotten composers, all of undeniable pedagogical value. Each piece, sold individually, has been the subject of careful editorial work, both in terms of the musical text and its engraving, in order to guarantee musicians the conditions indispensable to the pleasures derived from frequent trade in these works.
The scores are offered in the form of traditional works (paper sheets), and also available by download.
This delicate music was composed for a nautical concert given on the Thames in July 1717.
The idea came from King George I, a great lover of music, of whom Handel was the principal composer.' A set of three suites in F, G and D respectively, this work far surpasses anything previously written in the genre. The suites in F and D are typically open-air music, with their jubilant tone, while the poetic middle suite in G stands out for its more intimate character.
With its frank, pleasant melodies, "Water Music" remains one of Georg Friedrich Handel's best-known works.
