Till Sailer tells twelve vivid stories of the childhood and youth of the composer Georg Friedrich Handel in Halle, his trials at the Hamburg Opera, his first successes in Italy and his 'second life' in England. In London where Handel had the most prolific time of his life he wrote such masterpieces as 'Water Music' and the oratorio 'Messiah' with the famous Hallelujah chorus. Accurate in historical details, sensitive and always with a touch of humour, this book lets the reader gain an insight into the peculiarities of Handel's personality and the characteristic features of his epoch.
