RICHARD EGARR Conductor / Harpsichord
CAROLYN SAMPSON Soprano
Described as
a conductor “full of fizzy finesse”, Richard Egarr presents a celebration of
Handel and Purcell. There’s a riot of
colour in Handel’s Music for the Royal
Fireworks and in his Concerto Grosso Op 3 No 1, and exquisitely beautiful
arias from his humorous musical drama Semele,
delivered by the dazzling soprano Carolyn Sampson.
Purcell’s glimmering
suite from the opera The Fairy Queen
draws inspiration from Shakespeare’s A
Midsummer Night’s Dream, a bewitching tale celebrating the wonder and joy
of love in all its forms. Purcell conjures up an enchanted world where the
magical forces of nature reign supreme.
