Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Joshua

Across historic medieval vaulted sanctuaries and sunlit naves, the Haapsalu Early Music Festival weaves Baroque oratorios, intimate lute recitals and Renaissance polyphony into the lingering twilight of the Baltic summer.

Lead by Pál Németh, the Savaria Baroque Orchestra and the Kodály Choir Debrecen are the stars of this performance of Handel's oratorio.

In spite of the fact that a Handel oratorio, however renowned, provides limited opportunities for staging, this production of Joshua, directed by Charles Edwards, is a largely successful exercise in the art of the possible.
