Choir, Week 1 – Israel in Egypt

Summer School Choir

Handel – Israel in Egypt

Directed by Andrew Griffiths

The Summer School Choir will spend the week exploring Handel’s Israel in Egypt. Handel’s mighty choral epic Israel in Egypt brings the choir centre-stage with its graphic word painting and multicoloured descriptions of the trials and tribulations of this old testament masterpiece. For our performance at the close of Week One we are joined by soloists from Stile Antico, and the Summer School Baroque Orchestra.

We will be singing from the Novello Edition of Handel’s Israel in Egypt.
