When asked to play in the style of Handel, Mozart says "I don't like him." He also states that Christoph Willibald Gluck "boring." In fact Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart admired George Frideric Handel, played and listened to his works frequently, and even re-orchestrated a number of Handel's works including "Messiah." Mozart was also fond of Gluck's work and wrote a celebrated set of variations on a theme from one of Gluck's operas (K. 455).
