Performer: Riccardo Angelo Strano

Sigrid T'Hooft's witty Baroque styled *Parnasso in festa* at the Halle Handel Festival could hardly be better in any respect

Laurent Pelly's production of Giulio Cesare is a play of references to antiquity, heroism and myth. However, it does not thrill. 

La lotta d’Ercole con Acheloo has never been performed in Italy before, so this production sheds light on both Steffani's work and on this Festival's high quality.
