Great Music on Sundays @5 presents "THE BEAUTY OF BAROQUE"
Although Bach and Handel were born in central Germany in the same year, they never met. Handel was an international star who worked in Hamburg, Rome and London. Bach never traveled more than 200 miles from his birthplace. Handels vocal writing was unsurpassed in the Baroque era; his arias might be languid or filled with lament or bristling with anger and intense vocal flourishes, and they are always fascinating. Internationally acclaimed countertenor Christopher Lowrey will sing a bouquet of his favorite Handel arias from operas and oratorios. Frederick Jodry will play Bachs astonishing preludes and fugues from The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book II.
"Here surely is the emerging countertenor of the decade, with beautiful, seemingly effortless sound...." - Bachtrack
"Blessed with a voice of pure honey, he gives a world-class performance.... Don't miss him, he's going places." - Limelight Magazine
