Yes, George Frideric Handel composed music for the King of England, particularly for King George I and later for King George II. One of his most famous works, the "Water Music," was performed for King George I in 1717 during a royal boat outing on the River Thames. Additionally, Handel's oratorio "Messiah," while not specifically commissioned by the king, was performed for the royal court and has since become a staple of English choral music.
