Love that music.

Handel trivia- he was court musician to George, Prince Elector of Hanover, but snuck off without permission to take the same position for Queen Anne of Great Britain. He found himself in a bad position later when at the death of Queen Ann the succession passed to her nearest Protestant relative, George, Prince Elector of Hanover, who became King George I. Handel wrote the exquisite "Water Music" to re-ingratiate himself to his old employer and new king.

I always think of a story Ben Carson told during a Ceremony at the Medical College of Georgia. Dr Carson was separating conjoined twins in South Africa. It was close to midnight and he had been operating for over 10 hours and was exhausted. He did not feel he could continue but there was no choice. Dr Carson related to how he stepped back from the table and prayed for strength to continue. Dr. Carson stated operation was successful and as he stepped away the sun rise could be seen n a window in the OR and the Hallelujah Chorus for Handel’s Missiah came on the radio.
