Les Paladins

Enchantresses

Sandrine Piau soprano | Jérôme Correas conductor

Enchantresses
Having overcome London’s traditional resistance to Italian opera, Handel turned the artform into the city’s most fashionable entertainment. Les Paladins and Sandrine Piau, with help from a programme of showstopping arias and virtuosic Italianate instrumental pieces, show why the capital’s audiences flocked to hear Handel’s latest productions three centuries ago.
