Performer: Armonia Atenea

The Argentinian, one of the greatest countertenors of his generation, is today's specialist in the repertoire of Neapolitan composer Leonardo Vinci. 

Nicola Porpora's pasticcio was one of the highlights of the 45th edition of the Festival della Valle d'Itria in Martina Franca.

Max Emanuel Cenčić with Armonia Atenea under George Petrou provide an exciting and satisfying concert at the Halle Handel Festival

Rising tenor Juan Sancho sang an exciting if slightly thematically odd program, Handel's Seven Deadly Sins, at the Halle Handel Festival

Armonia Atenea and a thrillingly virtuosic cast, led by countertenor Max Emanuel Cenčić, bring Hasse’s Siroe to Amsterdam

It is perhaps inevitable that a Greek Baroque ensemble on their first visit to the Proms would want to showcase a programme with a link to their ancient heritage.
