A droll biography reveals the high notesand the low notesin the life of the worlds foremost composer of Baroque music.This is not your usual picture book biography. Nor was George Frideric Handel your everyday eighteenthcentury composer. This witty and yet rigorously researched and accessible biography captures Handels essential spiritfrom a child who smuggled a clavichord into the attic to play music against his fathers orders to a young man who imported fortyfive pounds of mountain snow to chill wine for a galaas well as his remarkable, enduring musical triumphs. But M. T. Anderson also shows Handels struggles and chronicles the illness, ill fortune, and despair that led to his greatest achievement, the Messiah. With impeccable detail and a wink at the reader, Kevin Hawkes illustrates the singular story of Handel and the music through which he lives on.Back matter includes a time line, discography, authors note, sources, and an index.
