Imagine that you’re able to attend what is to be the most expensive, spectacular fireworks display ever, set to the music of the most popular musician ever. What a grand event that would be!

In 1749, such an event occurred — and the popular musician to arrange the music? None other than George Frideric Handel. Let’s learn about his famous collection of music for this important event in today’s episode.
