Precise and contoured lamentation supported by thrilling chorus work at Kings Place

James Conway's production for English Touring Opera returns in a trimmed-down, single-evening guise. 

Despite the excellent playing of the Britten Sinfonia, Anna Morrissey’s flawed production disappoints. 

Rather than compiling a Top Ten of Baroque Hits, The Enchanted Island amounts to much more than a gallimaufry of choice gobbets, seasoned with French galenterie.

Timothy Edlin was a superb ass, first among six equals, in Liam Steel's production. 

Nicholas McGegan leads Royal Northern Sinfonia and Samling soloists through a dramatic and thought-provoking performance of Handel's Israel in Egypt to offer an alternative look at the Easter message of hope. 

A strong cast and fine playing from La Nuova Musica gives Handel's Berenice a reasonably fair outing, but its original plot weaknesses constrain this opera from being anything more than a curio for the Handel connoisseur.
