La Rejouissance (from Royal Fireworks Music)

Combine this festive movement with the First Philharmonic arrangements of Handel’s “Hornpipe” and “Hallelujah Chorus” for a wonderful suite honoring the great Baroque master! In addition to wonderful tutti writing, the string section and wind section are featured on their own in this colorful arrangement, which makes a perfect opener to any concert. All string parts are playable in first position, with optional shifting for first violin and string bass. (1:30) This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.
