GEORGE FRIDERIC HANDEL b. 1685, d. 1759
German-born child prodigy who settled in London in 1712, later becoming a naturalised Englishman and music master to the Royal Family. His reputation was established with more than 30 Italian-style operas but he later abandoned opera in favour of oratorios, reviving and extending the form in England with 20 mighty choral dramas. Music played this week concentrates on his anthems - four of the 11 which were written for the Duke of Chandos and the four composed for the Coronation of King George II. Overture: Lotario
