    I first heard the music for the Royal Fireworks when I was 8 back in the 60’s, and it was a revelation to a young man who had grown up with the Beetles etc, I could not believe what I was hearing, and started a lifetime love affair with Baroque music, and especially George Frideric Handel.
    I still have the record to this day.

      Amazing! I had a similar epiphany when I was 8 years old. I heard a performance of Messiah, and that was that. I was hooked. I love the Baroque, and Händel is THE absolute Titan of not only the Baroque but of Music.

    "A Grand Overture of Warlike Instruments" as Handel's masterpiece was presented at the time. After all the King had specifically said..."no fiddles." On that first performance he used 24 oboes, 12 bassoons, 9 horns, 9 trumpets and 3 drums. He added the strings later for the next performance of the work at his charity concert for the Foundling Hospital on May 27th, 1749.

    What an all-encompassing soul-stirring, goose-bump inducing feast for the ears! I listen to this at least once a week, best enjoyed with eyes closed, at loudest volume, reclining in my car with the windows rolled up. Every musical section played alone would fall short, but in convergent succession, trading off the spotlight, the crisp trills of the trumpets, steady notes of the horns, the smooth fluidity of the strings, the tinkly harpsichord, steady undernotes of the tenor and bass cellos, peppy joining of the woodwinds, commanding entrance of the drums, all swelling to a great emotion-filled crescendo that doesn't get much better than at 13:06 ("La Rejouissance"). The music has life of its own. Another ethereal experience brought to you, courtesy of western civilization and the genius of George Frederic Handel. There is little more you could hear that rivals the majesty of this piece. Bravo, brava, bravissimo!! I

    • @TheMovieCreator
      @TheMovieCreator 4 місяці тому +3

      @@gangflow9139 A lot of the horns and trumpets available at Händels time were indeed made with holes for adjusting intonation a little bit. This is to make some of the pitches in the "Natural" harmonic series more in tune with the common diatonic scale. In short, using the holes right will make previously unusable "harsh" overtones sound passable enough to be used. Still not enough for actually changing the tones in the horn, so free chromatic play is completely off the table - hence the need for multiple tuning-loops!

    • @kevwang0712
      @kevwang0712 4 місяці тому +2

      @@TheMovieCreator True, but these did not serve the same function as the vent holes used in modern-day baroque trumpets (as opposed to natural trumpets that have no vent holes at all). Modern day vent holes are bored at specific places on the tube where nodes in the standing wave form, when the finger is released, nodes will not be able to form at those locations, which means that certain harmonics are unable to be played, thus making playing easier while also changing the nature of the harmonic series that can be played.

    This suite and the Water Music suite have always been memorable for me. I heard them at my aunt's house first in the late forties when I was about seven, and enjoyed them both so much my poor father had to buy me records of both for Christmas. Buying Handel records back then, immediately post WW2 in Australia was no easy task, but bless him he found them. Thanks for this terrific download with the old instruments in force and so very well played too.

      ¿Los instrumentos de qué época? Las trompetas naturales con agujeros son un invento-chapuza del s. XX, para compensar la ignorancia sobre aspectos de la trompeta natural del barroco (fundamentalmente, por lo que toca a la boquilla adecuada). Pero que hagan lo mismo con las trompas, eso sí que no tiene ninguna justificación. Estos ingleses siguen en 1980.
