Description:
The 'Arrival of the Queen of Sheba' is a piece from Georg Friedrich Handel's oratorio Solomon, written in 1748 and performed for the first time on March 17, 1749. The arrangements presented here can be performed both by a flute orchestra and a quartet including solo instruments. When using the quartet version, the orchestration 3 flutes and bass flute should be given preference over the other instrumentations (3 flutes and alto flute or 4 flutes), because it sounds better and does not interfere with Handel's conduct of voices.
