Royal Fireworks: A Celebration of Life

Handel's "Royal Fireworks Music" was created as a sound tapestry for a 1749 London fireworks display to honor the end of the Austrian War, it transcends mere auditory experience to echo the continuum of existence—from birth's joy to the complexities of life and the celebration of mortality. Being enamored by the musical themes the composition explores the continuum of life through dance.
