"Praised be Saint Cecilia, patroness of musicians! Composed in 1739, Handel's work exalts both 'the powerful brilliance of trumpets' and 'the sweet and plaintive flute,' or even 'those divine harmonies that confuse Earth with paradise.' The verses, inspired and lyrical, are by the Poet Laureate of the Crown, John Dryden – loyal spectators will recall his exotic 'Indian Queen,' set to Purcell's music, presented at the Opéra de Lille in 2019. They will also not have forgotten soprano Elsa Benoit, heard in the title role of the exceptional production of Handel's 'Semele' in the fall of 2022 and who here takes on one of the solo parts. Alongside her, the American tenor with a luminous timbre, Eric Ferring, was Don Ottavio in last season's 'Don Giovanni'... In addition to Handel, there will be a selection of arias, symphonies, and excerpts from the works of Jean-Philippe Rameau. A grand Baroque celebration, in which Emmanuelle Haïm and the orchestra and choir of her Concert d'Astrée will resonate with timeless splendor.
Jean-Philippe Rameau - arias, symphonies, and excerpts from operas Georg Friedrich Handel - Ode to Saint Cecilia, HWV 76 for soloists, choir, and orchestra
