Parténope Händel

Directed alternately by William Christie and Paul Agnew and staged by Sophie Daneman, this new production invites you to rediscover this forgotten masterpiece ... but also to meet six exceptional voices: the six winners of the tenth edition of the Jardin des Voix, the famous academy for young singers of the Arts Florissants.

William Christie and the winners of the Jardin des Voix present Handel's Partenope

Twenty years after Rinaldo , his first London triumph, Handel offered the English public a new love and war epic, this time dedicated to Parthenope, the legendary Queen of Naples. The young soloists brought together by William Christie and Les Arts Florissants enthusiastically take hold of the torn and heart-rending characters of this madly baroque opera, where feelings are heightened under the pressure of high-powered music.
