Composed by George Frideric Handel. Arranged by Laura Chegwidden. Baroque,Concert,Graduation,Wedding. 40 pages. Laura Chegwidden #3468130. Published by Laura Chegwidden (A0.812099).Handel wrote 3 suites of Water Music, of which the D major suite is the second. It contains the famous Alla Hornpipe in D, along with four other movements, including a Minuet, Lentement and Bourree, along with one unlabelled movement. It is a fantastic example of a Baroque Orchestra suite written by one of the Masters of Baroque Music and is ideal for events like weddings, school concerts or functions. It functions easily both as a concert piece and background music for events like wedding receptions.
The arrangement goes for approx. 6 min not including repeats. This purchase includes a score and parts for all performers; violin 1, violin 2, and cello. It would work best for players of an intermediate to advanced level. It is set in the key of D major, which is the original key that the suite was written in.
Laura Chegwidden is a pianist, cellist, double bassist and singer from Newcastle Australia. She recently graduated with distinction from the University of Newcastle with a B.MUS majoring in Cello and Composition.
