His sonatas were written for a single instrument and often included a keyboard instrument. Handel was renowned for his ability to blend melodic ideas and inventive harmonies into his compositions, creating a unique and personal style.

His duets often featured ornate melodies and rich harmonies, creating a full sound that was both beautiful and moving. Handel's duets are still some of the most popular works in classical music today, and they continue to be performed and enjoyed by audiences around the world.
