This authentic arrangement of ten movements from the Water Music suites dates from Handel's lifetime, but is published here for the first time, edited by the distinguished Handel scholar Donald Burrows. Its simple, light scoring makes it excellently suited to use by schools and small instrumental groups. It can be performed in many different combinations from the original two violins, bassoon and continuo to string quartet or wind-based group.

Whoever pursues piano playing as a hobby mostly focusses on two things: playing from music, with as wide a range of works from classical, pop and jazz music as possible, and playing without the book, i.e. the ability to accompany melodies with chords, play songs by ear and improvise freely. In this volume, both topics are dealt with thoroughly and systematically. Whereas most piano methods prefer either classical or popular music, both kinds of music are well-balanced herein.Clearly structured chapters cover a variety of interesting topics: the Baroque, Classical and Romantic eras, popular piano styles (e.g. ragtime, boogie, rock 'n' roll, pop ballad), the blues and the genres of opera, operetta and ballet.

“G.F. Handel's (1685-1759) Water Music is one of the most famous suites ever to be written. Therefore, when brass arranger, Robert King (1914-1999) arranged three movements of the popular piece for the brass choir or brass sextet, it was very well-received. The Water Music premiered in 1717 and was originally composed for orchestra. The three movements arranged for brass are the two famous Allegros, and the well-known Andante. King's transcriptions ensure that the brass parts contain the articulation, phrasing and breath marks necessary to the instrument. For all classical brass ensembles, this King arrangement of the popular Water Music is essential.â€.
