Händel's oratorio 'Solomon' contains a short and lively instrumental passage (Sinfonia). This 'sinfonia' is also known as 'The Arrival of the Queen of Sheba' and has become very famous outside the context of the complete work.
Gottfried Veit transcribed this Sinfonia for a Clarinet Choir (5 Bb Clarinets, Bass Clarinet and Contrabass Clarinet).
