Composed during his transformative years in Rome, at a point in time when opera was banned by the Pope, Il Trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno (the Triumph of Time and Disillusionment) is Handel’s debut oratorio and a true landmark of the Baroque era. This mythical gem is a tale of love, choice, temptation, and fate, and features some of Handel’s most dazzling, virtuosic and emotive music.
Under the direction of Artistic Director Peter Whelan, the Irish Baroque Orchestra makes its London Handel Festival debut. We are joined for this performance by a stellar line-up of soloists, including two of the most recent winners of the International Handel Singing Competition.
Concert length: 2hrs 30mins (including one interval)
Tickets: £65, £55, £45, £35, £25 (partially restricted view), £15 (heavily restricted view).
The Irish Baroque Orchestra appears at the London Handel Festival with generous support from Culture Ireland.
