The genius of Wolfgang Mozart is the glorious phenomenon of a commission that includes the reorganization of the text order of the high and symbolic Messiah by Handel. The well-known story of Handel's life and that great Messiah consists of all of his music history and works. Handel, in Halle, Germany, witnessed the birth of J.S. in the magical year of 1685. Bach and Domenico Scarlatti. Handel made his "Grand Tour" in Italy from 1706 to 1710.
In the years following his move from Salzburg to Vienna in 1781, Mozart developed a fascination for Baroque music, especially the compositions of J.S. Bach and Handel. Baron Gottfried van Swieten, Mozart's and later, Beethoven's, friend and patron and a wealthy diplomat and amateur musician, had encouraged Mozart to study the manuscript copies of these Baroque masters which he had archived in his personal library. von Swieten had been arranging regular private performances of Baroque music the private residences of his aristocratic Viennese colleagues, eventually asking Mozart to curate and direct these events. The Baron had earlier founded the Geselschafft der Associerten (The Society of Associates), an exclusive club that offered oratorios at Lenten and Easter. By the time van Swieten offered a copy of Messiah and a German text to Mozart in 1789, he (Mozart) had already transcribed Handel’s Acis and Galatea, and would go on in the following year to transcribe Handel’s Ode to St Cecilia and Alexander’s Feast.
Mozart set his transcription of Messiah, entitled Der Messias (KV 572), to a 1775 German translation of the oratorio by Christoph Daniel Ebeling, which Ebeling had in turn adapted from an earlier eponymous epic poem by Friedrich Gottlieb Klopstock.
Der Messias is neither a radical rethinking of Handel’s original work, nor a cavalier rescoring by Mozart done simply as a lark. Although only 48 years separated Messiah’s premiere and Mozart’s 1789 transcription, an enormous change had occurred in musical style. Handel lived and wrote squarely within the idiom and constraints of the Baroque era, whereas Mozart composed in the conventions of Classical Style. By Mozart’s time, symphonic orchestras were populated by many different instruments, each lending its own tonal color, together giving a more textured sound than that of the simpler “symphonic bands” of strings and continuo, with occasional trumpets, of Handel’s time. In addition, Mozart lived in the Age of the Enlightenment, when diversity of ideas was being accepted (Luise, 2012).
According to musicologist Teresa Frick, "... Baron van Swieten wanted Mozart to "modernize" the oratorio (Messiah). This was a perfectly normal demand - the original work and its composer still commanded great respect, of course, but this was no obstacle to updating something "old-fashioned" to bring it into line with modern taste. ...

The composer George Frideric Handel was a Governor and benefactor of the Foundling Hospital,
and annual performances of Messiah offered important sources of revenue for the Hospital. Handel
supplied his first benefit live performance for the Hospital in 1749 to fund the completion of the
Chapel, and composed the anthem Blessed are they that considereth the poor, referred to as the
Foundling Hospital Anthem, for this event. The event was so successful that the Governors asked
him for one more concert the following 12 months; Handel selected to perform Messiah and he gave
performances every year until his dying in 1759. He also paid for the first organ to be put in in the
Hospital Chapel.
In 1702, following his father's wishes, Handel began finding out law under Christian Thomasius at
the University of Halle 14 He earned an appointment for one 12 months because the organist within
the former cathedral, by then an evangelical reformed church. Handel seems to have been unhappy,
and in 1703 he accepted a place stock as violinist and harpsichordist within the orchestra of the
Hamburg Oper am Gaensemarkt 15 There he met the composers Johann Mattheson , Christoph
Graupner and Reinhard Keiser His first two operas, Almira and Nero , had been produced in 1705.
sixteen He produced two other operas, Daphne and Florindo , in 1708. It is unclear whether or not
Handel directed these performances.
In the course of the summer time of 1741, The 3rd Duke of Devonshire invited Handel to Dublin ,
capital of the Kingdom of Eire , to give concert events for the advantage of native hospitals. 65 His
Messiah was first carried out on the New Music Hall in Fishamble Street on thirteen April 1742,
with 26 boys and five males from the mixed choirs of St Patrick's and Christ Church cathedrals
collaborating. sixty six Handel secured a steadiness between soloists and refrain which he by no
means surpassed.
The a hundred and five-quantity Haendel-Gesellschaft ("Handel Society") version was revealed
between 1858 and 1902—mainly as a result of efforts of Friedrich Chrysander For modern
performance, the realisation of the basso continuo reflects 19th century observe. Vocal scores drawn
from the edition had been published by Novello in London, however some scores, such because the
vocal score to Samson are incomplete.
The unique type of his identify, Georg Friedrich Haendel, is mostly utilized in Germany and
elsewhere, however he is called "Haendel" in France. A different composer, Jacob Handl or Haendl
(1550 - 1591) is often known by the Latin type Jacobus Gallus that seems in his publications.
