Just spent a whole afternoon listening to every version of this, for about the 10th time. This is my favourite. Always remember that in *Saul* it depicted the awfulness of mass death in war, not one person's funeral march.

He was born in Halle (Germany) - that's where this was live recorded - and was 25 years old, when he visited London for the first time and stayed there für one year. Finally when he was 27 Händel settled in London for the rest of his life. He became a British citizen when he was 42 years old in 1727.

What a WONDERFUL comment, Pauline. It would be plagiaristic of me to imitate you, so I refrain out of respect. I would add, if I may, that what grabs me is the appropriately sour tone of the trombones/sackbuts. No one else gets even close. As for the flutes, appropriately, again, mournful, are there really 4 flute parts in the original, or has Arman doubled them? In the circumstances, perfectly legitimate.
