Handel's Heroines

Soprano Helena Moore joins international baroque soloists Simone Pirri and Jacob Garside in a recital celebrating Handel’s heroines through instrumental and operatic music. This will include baroque jewels in the vocal repertory, such as Handel’s treasured cantata, Un’alma inamorata, as well as some of the most well-known baroque arias from operas such as Semele and Giulio Cesare.

The variety of music, from vocal fireworks to slower, more mournful arias with melodies of incredible beauty in this Handel Programme, is not to be missed.
