{"product_id":"handel-theodora-5054197177910","title":"Handel: Theodora","description":"\u003cp\u003eOh, honey! If you thought Handel was old school, think again! Joyce DiDonato, Michael Spyres, Il Pomo d'oro, and Maxim Emelyanychev have whipped up a fresh, modern take on Handel's Theodora that will have you grooving in your corset.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the opening notes of \"Oh the pleasure of the plains,\" DiDonato's voice captivates, with Spyres coming in hot with his powerful tenor. The chemistry between these two is electric, like two opera divas fighting over the last pair of Manolos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBut it's not just the vocals that shine on this album. The Pomo d'oro, led by Emelyanychev, bring a crisp, modern flair to Handel's Baroque score. The strings dance and the harpsichord twinkles, adding a touch of whimsy to the dramatic tale of martyrdom and love.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTracks like \"Angels, ever bright and fair\" showcase DiDonato's incredible range, while Spyres brings a raw emotion to \"To thee, thou glorious Son of worth.\" And let's not forget the show-stopping duet \"Streams of pleasure ever flowing,\" where the two voices entwine like lovers in a passionate embrace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSo grab your powdered wig and lace gloves, because Handel just got a makeover, darling, and it's a joy to behold. Bravo to DiDonato, Spyres, Il Pomo d'oro, and Emelyanychev for breathing new life into this timeless classic. Handel would be proud, honey!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"lasgo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50740917633355,"sku":"CD56592","price":33.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0880\/2349\/9083\/files\/5054197177910_ccbd5452-d15b-40e0-a472-81f10bfa24e9.jpg?v=1777646125","url":"https:\/\/vinylcastle.com\/products\/handel-theodora-5054197177910","provider":"Vinyl Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
