Minuet From The Royal Fireworks

Description

An excellent example of Baroque literature in a non-contrapuntal style, the parts in this setting are technically simple so directors can focus on concepts of musicality and interpretation during rehearsals. In his score notes John also explains that in Handel’s day this piece was typically played three times– strings alone, winds alone, strings and winds together– and offers specific suggestions for directors interested in supplementing this edition with wind parts.
