George Frideric Handel
1712
George Frideric (or Frederick) Handel (/ˈhændəl/;[lower-alpha 1] born Georg Friedrich Händel[lower-alpha 2] [ˈɡeːɔɐ̯k ˈfʁiːdʁɪç ˈhɛndl̩](listen); 23 February 1685 (O.S.) [(N.S.) 5 March] – 14 April 1759)[2][lower-alpha 3] was a German, later British, Baroque composer who spent the bulk of his career in London, becoming well-known for his operas, oratorios, anthems, and organ concertos. Handel received important training in Halle-upon-Saale and worked as a composer in Hamburg and Italy before settling in London in 1712; he became a naturalised British subject in 1727.[5] He was strongly influenced both by the great composers of the Italian Baroque and by the middle-German polyphonic choral tradition.
