Arrival of the Queen of Sheba by George Frideric Handel, arranged by E.W. Maynard performed by Ben Bloor on the 45 stop 1954 Downes/Walker organ of the London Oratory Church on Tuesday 2nd July 2024.
This 'Sinfonia', originally for two oboes and strings, opens the third act of Handel's oratorio 'Solomon' (HWV 67). In the context of the story, the Queen of Sheba pays a state visit to the kingdom of Solomon and is entertained by the court. In modern times, it has become a popular wedding processional for brides, owing to its joyful tone.
