The Sixteen y Harry Christophers glorian a Handel en el Auditorio

Ramón del Buey Cañas, 14th April

La fama de Handel, vinculada habitualmente con el Mesías, su hito más sobresaliente, no debe conducir a un olvido del resto de oratorios que nutren su catálogo, en el que, según pudimos atestiguar anoche, Israel en Egipto también merece un lugar privilegiado.

Uneven Mozart and Haydn from The Sixteen at Cadogan Hall

Mark Valencia, 16th February

The Sixteen’s work is spoilt by a shortage of violins and some uneven solo contributions. Such imperfections only serve to highlight the excellence of the very best.
