Description:
Music for the Royal Fireworks was composed in 1749 by G.F. Handel, commissioned by George II of Great Britain for the fireworks display in London’s Green Park. The original work was scored for a massive ensemble of percussion and wind instruments (no violins!) and featured a grand, slow introduction followed by very lively music in 3/4 time. This arrangement for euphonium and tuba quartet significantly reduces the massive instrumentation and the introduction, bringing the energetic, virtuosic elements of the work to the forefront—a challenging piece that is guaranteed to be a hit with the audience.
