SOLOMON’S KNOT: A BAROQUE COLLECTIVE
6pm: Pre-concert panel discussion on Handel’s masterpiece and the rationale behind this chamber version; with world-renowned Handel expert Dr Ruth Smith, and members of Solomon’s Knot, Jonathan Sells, Julian Forbes and James Halliday (in the chair)
Following the huge success of A CHAMBER MESSIAH last year, the 8 singers (performing without scores) and 14 players of SOLOMON'S KNOT return with their powerful and compelling account of Handel's masterpiece.
"...the vivacity and sheer excitement of these young, committed performers blow layers of respectful dust off their Baroque repertoire..." Musical Opinion, 2010
