The Great Wave off Kanagawa, painting by Hokusai
Water Music - Music for the Royal Fireworks
Concert at Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Centre
The Athens State Orchestra presents two pieces of George Frideric Handel which bring us mentally to London:
"Water Music" to the River Thames in early 18th century, where it premiered in response to King George I's request for a concert, and "Music for the Royal Fireworks", premiered in London's Green Park, under contract of George II.
