4.0 excellent | musichub | June 25th 22 | Written for George II as a tribute to yet another English war ending in success (as was the norm in those days), Handel's Fireworks is lumped in with his Water Music more often than not due to them both being outdoor performance pieces. Where the Fireworks stand out is in its usage of militaristic textures, such as a prominent snare drum and timpani - not necessarily a major compositional achievement for Handel, but most definitely a sign of things to come in Western music,
