George Frideric Handel

Born in Halle, Germany, George Frideric Handel was one of the leading lights of the Baroque period, and spent much of his life and career in London. He even became a naturalised British subject and was popular in his own time with the nobility as a prolific creator of operas and oratorios.

Zadok The Priest was composed for the coronation of George II and has been performed during the ceremony of every coronation since. It is also the inspiration for the theme for the UEFA Champions League. His other works, such as his Water Music and Music For The Royal Fireworks are also steadfast classics of the Baroque period.
