Critics and audiences have flocked to Carnegie Hall for The English Concert’s multiple “opera-in-concert” productions of works by Handel. “Expert as always ... no one plays Handel like this,” New York Classical Review recently raved. For this season’s matinee event, Harry Bicket has chosen a dramatic rarity: Handel’s Hercules. “It was never staged in Handel’s lifetime, and rarely is in ours,” said The Guardian’s five-star review of their London performance, “yet this concert performance makes an outstanding case for the work’s dramatic qualities.” Enjoy this chance to hear an elusive musical drama by one of history’s most entertaining vocal composers, brought to life by a world-class cast.
