From his great oratorios we know Handel as a master of epic grandeur and dramatic majesty. The pastoral masque Acis and Galatea (1718) shows another side to the composer, one of transparent lightness, refined sensuality, and tenderness. Yet whatever the means he employs to his ends, we are ever awed and elated by the unshakable generosity of this great European musician. A brilliant cast of singers and the award-winning Boréades ensemble team up in this fresh look at an early Handel masterwork.

Performer:
Galatea - Suzie LeBlanc, soprano
Acis - Mark Bleeke, tenor
Damon - Marc Molomot, tenor
Polyphemus - Nathaniel Watson, baritone
Francis Colpron, recorders, traverso
Les Boréades
