Mr Handel's Fireworks Party: The Incredible True Story of Handel's Music for the Royal Fireworks by Ann Rachlin
Fireworks that backfire...traffic jams in 1749...sword fights on London Bridge...road rage in horse-drawn carriages. Travel back in time with Ann Rachlin as she journeys to the London of 250 years ago. Thrill to the sparkle of the Royal Fireworks in your ears! The music is performed by The London Symphony Orchestra, The King's College Choir and conductors include Sir Charles Mackerras, with George Malcolm (harpsichord).
