musicAeterna and Teodor Currentzis. Hændel in Perm, House of Music (Shpagin Plant)

The Hændel concert at the Perm House of Music promises to be a bright event opening the Diaghilev Festival. This year we celebrate the 340th anniversary of George Frideric Handel's birth, and it is to him that the musical and theatrical ceremony is dedicated, which will be performed by the musicAeterna orchestra and choir conducted by Teodor Currentzis.

The concert program will feature an anthology of Handel's music - a pasticcio of arias, ensembles, orchestral and choral scenes from his operas and oratorios. Pasticcio is a musical collage that became popular in the 18th century. The concert will feature fragments from majestic Old Testament oratorios, arias from Italian operas, including such works as "Rinaldo", "Julius Caesar in Egypt", "Orlando" and "Theseus". Guests will also be able to enjoy virtuoso orchestral numbers.

A special feature of this event will be the performance on historical instruments in a baroque tuning. The artists of musicAeterna are known for their attentive approach to the historical performance style and their desire for authenticity of sound. The semi-staged production of the concert will emphasize the principles of the baroque extravaganza with its illusion and versatility.

The Perm House of Music is a modern venue with excellent acoustics, ideal for such large-scale events. In order not to miss this unique event, we recommend buying tickets on our website in advance.
