Handel: La Resurrezione
Penny Gore presents a performance given in Brussels of Handel's oratorio La Resurrezione. Plus Telemann's Concerto in E, TWV LIII E1 and Mozart's Symphony No 31 in D, K297.
Penny Gore presents a performance of Handel's early choral masterpiece given earlier this year at the Palais des Beaux Arts, Brussels. Written in Rome and first performed on Easter Sunday 1708, La resurrezione tells the story of Christ's Passion and Resurrection in an almost operatic way: opera was banned in Rome during Lent and Holy Week but this did not stop Handel's patron, Marchese Francesco Ruspoli staging the work and even employing a female singer in the lead role - something also outlawed.
