Performer: Yale Philharmonia

Is there a better way to spend a Sunday evening than with William Christie conducting “An Evening of Handel” at Carnegie Hall? The Philharmonia Orchestra of Yale and Yale Choral Artists were lucky to perform under his baton, and sounded glorious playing and singing works by il caro Sassone, Mr. Handel.Christie himself earned a degree from the Yale School of Music before emigrating to France.

We spoke to the acclaimed choral conductor about his upcoming tour of the East Coast with The Bach Choir, London and the Yale Schola Cantorum.
