I’ve been in love with George Frideric Handel‘s Music for the Royal Fireworks ever since I first heard it over fifty years ago. In getting caught up with Jordi Savall and everything he’s done over the years, I discovered this version, in which he conducts one of the several ensembles he’s founded, Le Concert des Nations.
There is much worth noting here, and I could go on at great length about it, but it strikes me as probably best, at least for now, to let the music speak for itself…
