George Frideric Handel: Dixit Dominus
The psalm setting (Psalm 110, Vulgate 109) Dixit Dominus, HWV 232, was completed by George Frideric Handel in April 1707 while living in Italy. It is Handel's earliest surviving autograph. It is most likely that the work was first performed on 16 July 1707 in the Church of Santa Maria in Montesanto, under the patronage of the Colonna family (Wikipedia).
