Our Take

If you thought Handel was just a one-hit wonder with his Messiah, think again! Nardus Williams, alongside the Dunedin Consort and John Butt, have come together to bring you a refreshing take on Handel's lesser-known Roman gems in their latest album, "Handel In Rome."

From the moment Williams' angelic voice breaks through the opening track, you know you're in for a treat. Her rich, velvety tones effortlessly tackle Handel's intricate melodies, transporting you straight to the streets of Rome. With the Dunedin Consort providing the perfect accompaniment, every note feels like it was meticulously crafted by Handel himself.

But it's not just the musicianship that shines in this album; Williams and the ensemble bring a playful energy to Handel's compositions. Whether it's a whimsical trill or a cheeky rhythmic flourish, there's a sense of fun and spontaneity that keeps you on your toes throughout.

John Butt's direction is masterful, guiding the ensemble through Handel's complex scores with ease. The dynamics ebb and flow, creating a sense of drama and tension that keeps you captivated from start to finish.

"Handel In Rome" is a delightful exploration of Handel's lesser-known works, brought to life by Williams, the Dunedin Consort, and Butt. So put on your powdered wig and lace up your corset, because this album is a musical journey you won't want to miss.
