About This Event

Following on from the success of last year鈥檚 Theodora, the multi-year Proms Handel cycle continues with the composer鈥檚 last, and perhaps greatest, oratorio 鈥� Jephtha.

Period-performance specialist Richard Egarr conducts the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and SCO Chorus in the devastating story of the warrior Jephtha commanded by God to sacrifice his daughter Iphis.

Tenor Allan Clayton is the conflicted Jephtha, with Trinidadian soprano Jeanine De Bique as Iphis.
