While not true for Bach, Handel achieved great business success during his lifetime, especially in his later adopted home of England. Handel\u2019s oeuvre and legacy of compositions are truly enormous, including 42 operas and 25 oratorios alone. Many of these compositions are almost forgotten now; however, some continue to enjoy great popularity, including the \u201cThe Arrival of the Queen of Sheba\u201d from the \u201cSalomon\u201d oratorio. Its lively \u2028semiquaver passages are still very often heard today as accompaniment for a ceremonial entry.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-38057-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/harpcolumn.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/01\/Entrance-of-the-Queen-of-Sheba-quartet-version.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/harpcolumn.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/01\/Entrance-of-the-Queen-of-Sheba-quartet-version.mp3\">https:\/\/harpcolumn.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/01\/Entrance-of-the-Queen-of-Sheba-quartet-version.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This arrangement of Handel\u2019s \u201cEntrance of the Queen of Sheba\u201d by Willi Maerz is for four pedal harps.
