Perth's HIP Company join forces with Sydney's The Marais Project for a charming evening of French Baroque music. 

Eccles' version of Semele would be a real treat to hear anywhere, but especially so for Perth (Western Australia), from the newish Baroque company HIP displaying a wealth of young talent. 

The pairing of Vivaldi's Gloria with Handel's Dixit Dominus makes for an interesting combination with, on this occasion, the latter making the more dramatic impact with the always impressive St George's Cathedral Consort. 

Although abbreviated, Pinchgut Opera's production of Handel's Rinaldo makes a powerful dramatic impact and exemplifies high musical values, with excellent orchestral playing and consistently fine singing.
