Wimbledon Int. Music Festival
Israel in Egypt
Academy Choir and Academy Baroque Players
featuring Rowan Pearce (soprano) Hugh Cutting (counter tenor) Robert Murray (tenor)
The Academy Choir under Matthew Best open the festival with Handel’s mighty choral masterpiece, in which Moses battles bloody water, frogs, hailstones and impenetrable darkness, to lead the Israelites out of Egypt.
With the sheer exuberance of his imagination, the variety and vividness of his choral writing, the power of his story telling, Israel in Egypt is one of Handel’s most popular and glorious oratorios.
