They incorporate various suite types, including traditional four-movement suites and sonatas inspired by Corelli's trio sonatas. Handel's use of variations, fugues, and other forms highlights his compositional prowess.Handel's 1720 collection received widespreadacclaim across Europe, inspiring composers likeBach, Muffat, and Rameau to incorporate similar elements into their works.
