Question
This composer’s head was said to be “full of maggots” by a collaborator when he called for a carillon in one piece, which features a solo harp interlude representing the title king’s son. In another work by this composer, a high solo trumpet accompanies the aria “The trumpet shall sound.” The death of Jonathan is mourned by a “Dead March”in one of this composer’s oratorios, which often were paired with libretti by Charles Jennens. An opening E minor Sinfony and “pastoral symphony” Pifa are included in one work by this composer, which allegedly inspired George II to stand during its “Hallelujah Chorus.” For 10 points, name this composer of the oratorios Saul and Messiah. ■END■
