The Water Music is a collection of orchestral movements, often considered three suites, composed by George Frideric Handel. It premiered on 17 July 1717 after King George I had requested a concert on the River Thames. The concert was performed by 50 musicians playing on a barge near the royal barge from which the King listened with close friends, including the Duchess of Bolton, the Duchess of Newcastle, the Countess of Godolphin, Madam Kilmarnock, and the Earl of Orkney. George I was said to have enjoyed the suites so much that he bade the exhausted musicians play them three times over the course of the outing. Source: Wikipedia

Hi there! This is my preferred version of the Air, the more upbeat, fun version...which I simply cannot find anywhere. Can you please tell me where you found this version? I would like it to be part of my collection. Thank you so very much!

@beaka63 Tafelmusik Baroque from Toronto, Canada. They recorded the Water Music Suite a few years ago, I believe at the time, it was released by Sony Classical
