Baroque composers = t3h l33tness.
(The Baroque being the period between circa 1600 up until, at least officially, 1750. One of the greatest composers of the period, George Friederich Handel, who composed, incidentally, the coronation anthem still used by the UK known as "Zadok the Priest", Messiah, the oratorio from which the Hallelujah Chorus comes, and many other wonderful bits of music, died in 1759, having just completed his last, presumably Baroque, oratorio...)
