What composer strongly influenced both by the great composers of the Italian Baroque and by the middle-German polyphonic choral tradition, had a museum in Mayfair, London dedicated to his life and work?
Handel House Museum The Handel House Museum is a museum in Mayfair, London dedicated to the life and works of the German-born British baroque composer George Frideric Handel, who made his home in London in 1712 and eventually became a British citizen in 1727. Handel was the first occupant of 25 Brook Street, which he rented from 1723 until his death there in 1759. Almost all his works after 1723, amongst them many of his best-known operas, oratorios and ceremonial music, were composed and partially rehearsed in the house, which contained a variety of keyboard instruments, including harpsichords, a clavichord and a small chamber organ.
