WATER & FIRE Decap
BL!NDMAN [sax] tackles G.F. Handel’s Water Music and Music for the Royal Fireworks together with a large DECAP organ! Between these two baroque icons is the infamous opening movement of Jean-Féry Rebel’s Les Elémens, a musical mug’s bargain that was far ahead of its time.
A festive evening full of musical fireworks!
