a master of baroque

Georg Friedrich Händel, born on February 23, 1685 in Halle, was a German British composer who made a legendary name in baroque music. He is known for his operas, oratorios and concerts that shape its distinctive style. Handel's career began in Hamburg and Italy before moving to London in 1712 and achieving a high reputation among the musicians and the audience. With his works, especially the oratorio "Messiah", he has decisively influenced the English church music and created new genres. Handel's organ concerts and his masterpieces such as "water music" and "Zadok the Priest" are still widespread and valued.

His compositional roots were deep in the German polyphonic choral science and the Italian baroque, which contributed to the fact that his music was seen as the highlight of the "high baroque". After a health setup in 1737, Handel reinforced the English choral plants and ended the composition of Italian operas - a sharp cut that was particularly concise in his creative career.

Handel's legacy

Handel's life was characterized by success and challenges, but his inheritance remains imperishable. He left 42 operas and 24 oratorios, which still have a permanent place in the repertoire of many choirs and orchestras. The influence of his works extends into modern times, with many composers of the classic age, such as Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, inspired by his music.

So what can you expect from the concert in the Silbermann Museum? A deep immersion in the tonal diversity and splendor of baroque music, which will shine in full bloom by the performance of the talented duo Vimaris. It would be a shame to miss this musical event. Reserve your places in good time and experience a piece of musical cultural heritage that is second to none.
