The Messiah was composed from august 22 to September 14, 1741 by George Frederik Handel (1685-1759) Perhaps one of the most complete Opera libretto ever written. It was based after The Bible's prophecy of a child that would be born to save the world.

George Handel did not write Messiah. A man named Charles Jennens did. But he sent the papers for Messiah around 1741. And his name is spelled George Frederick Handel.
