I watched them with the sound off, because I was ringing, or being rung by, the family.

The fireworks were fantastic, but I cannot say the same about the accompanying “music??” If I had been at home I would have turned off the volume, but in a friend’s house could not do so. There is some fantastic classical music specially written to accompany fireworks,

or it would be great to have a new piece written each year specifically for the display. It could include a variety of music, to cater for the tastes a broader audience. Personally, I felt that the cacophony of noise ruined for me what was a spectacular display.
