| Description: This arrangement combines two short movements from Handel's Concerto Grosso to make a miniature Baroque overture. It begins with a short, majestic section, continues on with a longer, lively contrapuntal part, and ends with a hint of the stately beginning. Packed with excitement and learning opportunities, the themes are presented in all the parts. This audience pleaser is an excellent choice for a concert opener. |
