Handel in the Strand (Symphonic Band Set) by Percy Aldridge Grainger Concert Band - Sheet Music

By Percy Aldridge Grainger

Handel in the Strand is one of Grainger's early light orchestral pieces, written in 1911, before he enlisted in the US Army during World War I. Grainger had no trouble allowing other musicians to arrange his music to suit their needs, so Handel in the Strand has existed in several different versions. Grainger himself said of this piece, "...the music seemed to reflect both Handel and English musical comedy... as if jovial old Handel were careening down the Strand (London’s Broadway) to the strains of modern English popular music." What can one add to that? Try it and find out!
