    The document summarizes section B of Handel's Water Music Alla Hornpipe in D major. It describes the section as having a homophonic texture at the beginning with brass as the melody and strings as harmony, becoming polyphonic with two melodic lines in the brass and strings. The section features fast moving strings and off-beat syncopated brass in a relative B minor tonality with a lively and energetic mood in 3/2 triple meter at a moderately fast tempo, ending with two cadences, the second being a perfect cadence.
