@rh7189 Handel was indeed born german however he moved to england later in his life and later died there and therefore adopted the English spelling and pronunciation of his name as George Friedrich Handel (instead of Georg Friedrich Händel)

He the German setting of "der Messias" works well.

It just makes me somewhat ill when people assume that it was "the original."

I'll forgive people for writing it with the diacritic when crediting him as the composer of the German version.
