Our Take

Prepare to be serenaded by the enchanting vocals of Carolyn Sampson on her latest collaboration with The King's Consort and conductor Robert King. Their album "Abbandonata" delves into Handel's world of Italian cantatas, a hidden gem in the classical music realm.

Sampson's voice effortlessly glides through Handel's intricate melodies, showcasing her impressive range and control. The King's Consort provides a lush, harmonious backdrop that perfectly complements Sampson's vocals, creating an atmosphere that feels both grandiose and intimate.

From the hauntingly beautiful "Mi palpita il cor" to the energetic "Notte cara," each track on this album is a musical masterpiece in its own right. Sampson's emotional delivery draws listeners in, making them feel every note and every word as if they were experiencing it live.

Robert King's expert guidance shines through in the ensemble's tight, cohesive performance, elevating Handel's compositions to new heights. The attention to detail in every bar and every phrase is a testament to the group's dedication to their craft.

Overall, "Abbandonata" is a delightful journey through Handel's lesser-known works, brought to life by the unmatched talent of Carolyn Sampson, The King's Consort, and Robert King. So sit back, relax, and let the music transport you to a world of beauty and emotion. You won't be disappointed.
