George Frideric Handel

No, they were not. They sometimes offered suggestions as to the design, stops and final efficacy of an instrument; and, although they were both magnificent organists, neither of them actually built any instruments.

Bach, Handel, Vivaldi, Monteverdi and Purcell.

Basso continuo - The basso continuo, used throughout baroque music, is a technique by which a harmonic foundation lends support to a melodic line that carries the main melodies of a composition.

George Frederic Handel was a British Baroque composer. He had lost much of his eyesight by his death, due to cataracts. An unsuccessful surgery to correct the cataract likely made his eyesight worse.

German.

duple meter.

4 motifs which come in one by one and are then repeated and combined. They are:

1. 'And the glory the glory of the Lord'

2. 'Shall be revealed'

3. 'And all flesh shall see it together'

4. 'For the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it'

Yes. He was called the Bear because of his size. (hint, double chin)

Messiah

The triumph of the time and truth

He wrote 16 oratorios

Handel is one of the best comporsers. Every Valley, is a composition that I like so much. He was the son of a barber-surgeon. He wanted George to become a lawyer, but George was captured by the sound of music. His aunt gave him a spinet for his 7th birthday. The spinet was put in the attick and Handel visited the attick day making a virtuoso.

A spinet is a early smaller type of harpsichord that had a single keyboard and only one string for each note.

Handel was a keyboard player. In his time, he was widely popular as an organist. The best evidence for his excellence in harpsichord is the set of eight keyboard suites.

George Frederic Handel is a German composer in Baroque period. Handel was born in 1685 and died in England at age 74 (1759). He was popular as a composer for operas, concerti-grossi and oratorios and as an organist. Two of his widely known works are Messiah (oratorio for solo voices, chorus and baroque orchestra) and Passacaglia in G minor (from his keyboard suite no 7).

He hid in the attic because his father wanted him to be a lawyer and forbade him to play music. He was able to sneak his instrument into the attic .

Dublin, Ireland

Yes, he made the set of orchestras and operas called "Water Music."

Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) and George Frederic Handel (1685-1759) were popular composers during the very late Baroque and during the early "pre-classical" or Rococo Period (c.1730 to 1760).

It doesn't make sense to ask what is the tonality of THE Messiah chorus because there are lots of choruses in Messiah. If you mean the most well-known one, the Hallelujah chorus, it's in D major.

Hmmmm...one hit wonder? From WikiPedia: "Handel's compositions include forty two operas, twenty nine oratorios, more than 120 cantatas, trios and duets (together about 2.000 arias), chamber music, a large number of ecumenical pieces, odes and serenatas and sixteen organ concerti." In addition to his Messiah, which I suspect is the "one hit" to which you refer, his Water Music and opera, Serse, are quite well known and appreciated.
