L'Allegro, il Penseroso ed il Moderato (2021-2022)

A hybrid work between oratorio, ode and serenata, L’Allegro is undoubtedly one of Handel’s most mysterious works, but also his most inspired! With their accustomed poetry, William Christie and Les Arts Florissants offer us the chance to rediscover this masterpiece, in which the composer transforms metaphysics into painting and ideas into pure emotions.
