Last performed as part of Tafelmusik’s debut at Carnegie Hall in 2009, we kick off our season with perennial favourite, Handel’s Water Music. Composed in 1717 for a royal barge party on the River Thames, King George enjoyed this new piece so much that he reportedly requested that the musicians play it three times the same night!
Water Music features a large orchestra with glorious winds and brass — a festive way to celebrate the launch of the new season. It is complemented by festive music by Handel contemporaries Bach and Rameau, and guest directed by violinist Elisa Citterio, who returns following her stunning Tafelmusik debut last November. Single tickets from $38; Tafelscene (35 & Under) from $15
