ALEXANDER'S FEAST
Georg Friedrich HAENDEL

Richard NEVILLE-TOWLE - Sophie BEVAN...

  • Ref. BH4078
  • DELPHIAN, 2010.

Le Festival d'Édimbourg est un lieu de rendez-vous des meilleurs ensembles baroques du Royaume-Uni et les apparitions du Ludus baroques y sont des événements incontournables. Il est heureux que l'enregistrement de ces Fêtes d'Alexandre dirigée par Richard Neville-Towle et auxquelles participent des solistes britanniques aussi talentueux que Sophie Bevan, Ed Lyon et William Berger en autorise une plus large diffusion.
