    List of compositions by George Frideric HandelFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    George Frideric Handel (23 February 1685 – 14 April 1759) was a German–English

    Baroque composer who is famous for his operas, oratorios and concerti grossi. Handel'scompositions include 42 operas; 29 oratorios; more than 120 cantatas, trios and duets;numerous arias; chamber music; a large number of ecumenical pieces; odes and

    serenatas; and 16 organ concerti. His oratorio Messiah , with its "Hallelujah" chorus, isamong the most famous Baroque works and is a popular choice for performances during

    the Christmas season. Among Handel's best-known instrumental works are the ConcertiGrossi Opus 3 and 6; "The Cuckoo and the Nightingale", in which birds are heard callingduring passages played in different keys representing the vocal ranges of two birds; and his16 keyboard suites, especially The Harmonious Blacksmith .

    Collected editions of Handel's works include the Händel-Gesellschaft (HG) and theHallische Händel-Ausgabe (HHA), however the more recent Händel-Werke-Verzeichnis

    (HWV) publication is now commonly used to number his works. For example, Handel's

    Messiah  can be referred to as: HG xlv, HHA i/17, or HWV 56.[1] Some of Handel's music isalso numbered based on initial publications, for example a 1741 publication by Walshlabelled twelve of Handel's concerti grossi as Opus 6 .

    357 Oboe B-flat major c. 1707–10One of Handel's earliest extantcompositions. Probably written during

    his years in Italy

    358 Unspecified G major c. 1707–10

    A "Fitzwilliam" sonata. Theautographed manuscript, located in theFitzwilliam Museum, does not mentioninstrumentation, nor are there tempomarkings for the movements. It is

    tentatively assigned to the violin in theHHA, however the recorder is also apossibility.

    359a Violin D minor c. 1724

    The D minor sonata, headed "Sonata2", follows the G major sonata (HWV358) in the Fitzwilliam Museumautograph. Originally written for violinand published in two different E minor

    versions for the flute. See flute sonatain E minor (HWV 359b)

    359b Flute E minor c. 1724 1732 Opus 1 No. 1b

    Of the two sonatas published byChrysander as Opus 1 Sonata I , this

    one (Sonata I 

    ) is the one in Walsh'soriginal edition (where it is called

    Sonata I ).

    Movements 1–5 constitute the"Fitzwilliam Sonata III" in ThurstonDart's arrangement. Originallypublished Flute Sonata in B minor, Op 1

    No 9b (HWV 367b). The contemporaryedition of Handel attributes it to thetransverse flute, but the autograph

    manuscript is clearly for the recorder.
