Haydn Sinfonietta Wien:Huss - Handel: Water Music

Handel's Water Music, composed for a royal boat party on the Thames on 17th of July 1717 was possibly never performed again in its original form during Handel's lifetime - here all 22 movements are recorded in their original sequence.Manfred Huss and the period orchestra Haydn Sinfonietta Wien are internationally acclaimed for their rousing performances of Haydn and Schubert. They now bring their indomitable enthusiasm and expertise to one of Handel's most famous and popular works, rounding off the disc with the composer's far less well-known, but equally resplendent Ouverture from the Occasional Oratorio.
