Our Take

London Early Opera's latest album, "Handel's Queens," is a delightful romp through the works of the iconic composer, George Frideric Handel. Mary Bevan, Lucy Crowe, and Bridget Cunningham shine as they deliver stunning performances of Handel's famous operatic arias.

The album kicks off with Bevan's captivating rendition of "Ombra mai fu," a true display of her vocal prowess. Crowe's performance of "Tornami a vagheggiar" is equally compelling, showcasing her impressive range and skill.

Cunningham's harpsichord playing throughout the album adds a dynamic layer to the overall sound, providing the perfect accompaniment to the powerful vocals of Bevan and Crowe. The chemistry between the musicians is palpable, creating a cohesive and engaging listening experience.

The standout track on the album has to be the trio performance of "Concerto a due cori," where Bevan, Crowe, and Cunningham come together in perfect harmony. Their voices blend beautifully, creating a truly magical moment that will leave listeners in awe.

Overall, "Handel's Queens" is a must-listen for fans of Baroque music and opera. London Early Opera's interpretation of Handel's works is fresh, energetic, and full of passion. This album is a testament to the enduring power of Handel's music and the incredible talent of the performers involved. Don't miss out on this gem of a record.
