Handel’s solomon: Solomon

Solomon: Solomon Händel

They’re back! After an astonishing debut with Alcina in 2021, conductor Harry Bicket and his sensational orchestra, The English Concert, return with another dazzling baroque masterpiece performed in concert. This time, it’s Handel’s Solomon.

Complete oratorio, concert performance

Completed in the summer of 1748 and premiered the following season at London’s Covent Garden, Handel’s Solomon is one of his grandest oratorios. Across its three acts, it presents three depictions of the munificent and wise King Solomon.

Under the direction of The English Concert’s Artistic Director Harry Bicket, the performances feature some of the world’s pre-eminent Handelian singers. Solomon is sung by Swedish mezzo-soprano Ann Hallenberg, while Christina Gansch and Elena Villalón will perform the virtuoso soprano parts of the two queens.

With an expanded orchestra and lavish choruses for double choir, Solomon is a rousing celebration of the ideals of monarchy, and the peace and prosperity afforded by benevolent kingship.
