Halle
I am a great fan of Handel and was pleased to visit Halle earlier this year.
George Frideric (or Frederick) Handel was born 23 February 1685 and was a German, later British, Baroque composer who spent the bulk of his career in London, becoming well known for his operas, oratorios, anthems, and organ concertos. Handel received important training in Halle-upon-Saale and worked as a composer in Hamburg and Italy before settling in London in 1712.
