| Added by magataganm, 21 Aug 2023 George Frideric (or Frederick) Handel (1685 – 1759) was a German-British Baroque composer well known for his operas, oratorios, anthems, concerti grossi, and organ concertos. Handel received his training in Halle and worked as a composer in Hamburg and Italy before settling in London in 1712, where he spent the bulk of his career and became a naturalised British subject in 1727. He was strongly influenced both by the middle-German polyphonic choral tradition and by composers of the Italian Baroque. In turn, Handel's music forms one of the peaks of the "high baroque" style, bringing Italian opera to its highest development, creating the genres of English oratorio and organ concerto, and introducing a new style into English church music. He is consistently recognized as one of the greatest composers of his age. After spending some of his early career composing operas and other pieces in Italy, he settled in London, where in 1711 he had brought Italian opera for the first time with his opera Rinaldo. A tremendous success, Rinaldo created a craze in London for Italian opera seria, a form focused overwhelmingly on solo arias for the star virtuoso singers. In 1719, Handel was appointed music director of an organisation called the Royal Academy of Music (unconnected with the present day London conservatoire), a company under royal charter to produce Italian operas in London. Handel was not only to compose operas for the company but hire the star singers, supervise the orchestra and musicians, and adapt operas from Italy for London performance. By means of their high degree of consistency and maturity, Handel's chamber duets constitute a highlight of this genre. The chamber duets and trios (Duos and Trios II) were written in 1710–12 in Hanover. They are musically demanding and structured contrapuntally: the earlier works are stricter, more scholarly and more elaborate in terms of counterpoint but masterly in their craftsmanship. The later ones are composed somewhat freer, but more compact. Source: Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aci,_Galatea_e_Polifemo) . Although originally scored for Soprano, Alto & Bass, I created this Interpretation of the Duetto "Tanti strali al sen mi scocchi" from "Duos and Trios II" (HWV 197 No. 12) for String Trio (Violin, Viola & Cello).
