Iestyn Davies in Valletta: fitting Handel like a glove

El planteamiento y la ejecución de Robert King fueron los de un Mesías con las virtudes y los defectos de lo domesticado.

The King's Consort realizan un viaje por el siglo XVII inglés, con música escrita en torno a las obras de Shakespeare.

Carolyn Sampson returns joyfully to the Halle Handel Festival, accompanied by trumpeter Neil Brough and the King's Consort under Robert King.

Eine etwas zu besinnliche Messias-Tradition verhindert ein spannenderes, abwechslungsreicheres Erlebnis, das aber vom Ensemble hervorragend musiziert wurde.

Handel’s original version of Acis and Galatea was written in 1717–18 at Cannons, a stately home in Middlesex. Composed with light orchestration, it was not meant to be performed in an opera theatre, but rather in this private mansion.

All too often opera in concert is presented in its most basic format, without the theatricality and staging so characteristic to its execution. However, when a presentation comes along from the likes of The King’s Consort, you can be sure that justice will be served, even without the smoke and mirrors we’ve all grown to love.
