Handel in London: Italian Opera and English Oratorio

5th June @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

Step into the vibrant musical world of 18th-century London with a captivating evening celebrating the genius of George Frideric Handel. This special concert traces his remarkable journey – from dazzling Italian operas to powerful English oratorios – through a rich programme of arias and duets.

Join mezzo-sopranos Lucy and Olya Spencer, accompanied by the Camden Philharmonia Orchestra under the baton of Liz Worth, for an unforgettable performance filled with lyrical beauty and dramatic intensity.

Experience beloved masterpieces including “Lascia ch’io pianga” from Rinaldo and “But who may abide” from the Messiah, alongside hidden gems from Giulio Cesare, Alcina, Amadigi Gaula, and more. The programme also features the iconic “Ombra mai fu”, a timeless tribute to nature – perfectly complementing our charity partner, Trees for Cities.

This concert is proudly held in support of Trees for Cities, with proceeds helping to fund urban tree planting and green space initiatives – making a lasting impact on communities and the environment.

Join us at 7.30pm on Friday 5th June at St Mary-at-Hill church for an uplifting evening of Baroque music and to support our green future!
