About "Water Music Suite No. 2 in D Major, HWV 349 : Handel: Water Music Suite No. 2 in D Major, HWV 349: II. [Alla Hornpipe]" by Wolfgang Meyer
Handel's Alla Hornpipe from the Water Music Suite No. 2 is a brisk, brassy gallop—Wolfgang Meyer leading a procession that feels both regal and buoyant. The melody leaps like sunlight on river waves, a courtly dance with a wink, all pomp and pleasure, the Thames itself seeming to keep time.
