Fesch
Willem de Fesch (1687–1761) was a Dutch violinist, cellist, and composer who served as director of music at Antwerp Cathedral before settling in London around 1731, where he spent the remainder of his career. In London he became part of the musical world surrounding Handel's oratorio concerts, appearing as a performer at several of these events. His instrumental output, including concertos and violin sonatas shaped by the influence of Corelli and the Italian Baroque, found a ready audience in a city that was one of the most active music markets in Europe. He published much of his work in London, where it circulated alongside the music of his more famous contemporaries.
