Between serving his musical apprenticeship in Hamburg and making his name in London, Handel spent almost three years in Italy, where he was exposed to the latest compositional and vocal techniques — and also quickly acquired a remarkable affinity for setting the Italian language to music. With the English Concert’s musical director Harry Bicket, Lucy Crowe gives an intimate recital featuring some of Handel’s finest Italian-texted music, including the dramatic cantata Armida abbandonata (HWV 105). Interpolated among the vocal numbers are some of his most original instrumental works.
