George Frideric (or Frederick) Handel ( ; born Georg Friedrich Händel ] ; 23 February 1685 (O.S.) [(N.S.) 5 March] – 14 April 1759) was a German, later British, baroque composer who spent the bulk of his career in London, becoming well known for his operas, oratorios, anthems, and organ concertos. Handel received important training in Halle and worked as a composer in Hamburg and Italy before settling in London in 1712; he became a naturalised British subject in 1727.  He was strongly influenced both by the great composers of the Italian Baroque and by the middle-German polyphonic choral tradition. <SEP> Félix Rienth (born 24 June 1970) is a Swiss operatic tenor.  Born in Basel, he was a member of the Basel Boys Choir in his youth.  He made his first opera appearance as a boy with Theater Basel as the first boy in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's "The Magic Flute".  He attended the University of Basel where he earned diplomas in the Spanish and German languages.  He then studied singing privately in Basel with Heidi Wölnerhanssen before entering the Hochschule der Künste Bern; graduating from there in 2000 with a degree in opera performance.  He has since had a major career as a concert singer in the oratorio repertoire; appearing with important ensembles and at major music festivals throughout Europe, including a recital in presence of Her Majesty, Queen Fabiola of Belgium.  He has made about 20 recordings on a variety of labels.  A highly acclaimed production was the recording of Johann Christoph Pepusch]]'s "Tenor Cantatas" with his wife, Muriel Rochat Rienth, recorder player, and Swiss baroque ensemble "La Tempesta Basel".  His CD of Spanish baroque songs "Tonos humanos" by José Marín was considered as a reference recording by German magazine "Klassik heute".  2014 is appearing Georg Philipp Telemann's "Tenor Cantatas" with "La Tempesta Basel", elected among "Best CDs of the month" by Spanish magazine RITMO. <SEP> Susannah Maria Cibber (February 1714 – 30 January 1766), also known as Susannah Maria Arne, was a celebrated English singer and actress and the sister of the composer Thomas Arne.  Although she began her career as a soprano, her voice lowered in the early part of her career to that of a true contralto.  She was universally admired for her ability to move her audiences emotionally both as an actress and vocalist.  Possessing a sweet, expressive, and agile singing voice with a wide vocal range, Cibber was an immensely popular singer, even if at times her voice was criticized for a lack of polished technique.  Charles Burney wrote of her singing that "by a natural pathos, and perfect conception of the words, she often penetrated the heart, when others, with infinitely greater voice and skill, could only reach the ear."  Cibber was particularly admired by Handel, who wrote numerous parts especially for her including the contralto arias in his 1741 oratorio "Messiah", the role of Micah in "Samson", the role of Lichas in "Hercules" and the role of David in "Saul" among others.  In the mid-1730s she began appearing in plays in addition to appearing in operas and oratorios.  She became the greatest dramatic actress of the eighteenth century London stage and at the time of her death was the highest paid actress in England. <SEP> Der Messias, K. 572, is Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's 1789 German-language version of "Messiah", George Frideric Handel's 1741 oratorio.
