George Frideric Handel (1685-1759) was a German-born composer who became a naturalized British subject and is widely regarded as one of the greatest composers of the Baroque era. Handel's music encompassed a wide range of genres, including opera, oratorio, concerto, orchestral suites, and choral music. Handel's oratorio "Messiah" is perhaps his most famous and enduring composition. It includes the well-known "Hallelujah" chorus and is often performed during the Christmas season. His operatic works include "Giulio Cesare," "Rinaldo,"Alcina," and "Serse" (also known as "Xerxes").
