Upcoming concert
At a time when people in power are once again making a career for themselves, Handel’s «Solomon» is more relevant than ever: as a symbol of just rule that also recognises compassion. Handel created one of his most colourful scores for this work with impressive choral parts. A very special listening experience thanks to the early music specialists from London, the Orchestra & Choir of the Age of Enlightenment.
KKL Luzern — Mon, 20*10*2025, 7.30 p.m.
