1741 Charles Jennens, the librettist for Handel's oratorio Saul, writes to a friend: "Handel says he will do nothing next Winter, but I hope I shall persuade him to set another Scripture collection I have made for him, and perform it for his own benefit in passion week. I hope he will lay out his whole genius and skill upon it, that the composition may excel as his former compositions, as the subject excels every other subject. The subject is Messiah."
1938 Anton Kuerti – Austrian-born Canadian pianist, music teacher, composer, and conductor (80 years old); studied at the Cleveland Institute of Music; long-time peace activist.
