ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE

ABOUT THIS CONCERT
Rome, 1707. As an ambitious twenty – something , Georg Friedrich Händel sets out to get to know the transalpine arts mecca , its music trends and its superstars
Soprano Stefanie True digs up the most beautiful melodies from two of Handel’s Roman cantatas. With a trio sonata that probably belongs to his earliest Italian works , La Sfera Armoniosa shows what the young man was already capable of back then.
