George Frideric Handel's Accomplishments

As a result of his intrinsic musical talents, I’ve decided to do my paper on George Frideric Handel. Handel is one of the greatest composers of the Baroque period. He was born on February 23, 1685 and he had plenty of siblings. Additionally, his birthplace was Halle, Brandenburg, which is located in Germany.

The manager told him to write opera because he felt that it would be great for Handel, and a bright opportunity for great success. The Rinaldo was the widespread for Handel. It was so great that it was able to maintain for the rest of his music career. After that Handel had spent some time performing for a Queen name Anne and King George
