For the love of Handel

Every year, the Handel Festival celebrates the masterful work of the musician and composer.

The first Handel festivals in Halle took place as early as the 19th century. In 1922 Handel's operas were rediscovered at "Halle Handel Festivals", and since 1952 the Handel Festival has been held regularly once a year - in honour of Handel, who was born in Halle and spent his formative first decades here, and in honour of his great music.
