Sublimely Intimate: Opera in the Salon

Elisabeth Hetherington, soprano

​Aysha Wills, traverso
Cynthia Freivogel & Tomoe Badiarova, violins
Iteke Wijbenga, viola 
Octavie Dostaler-Lalonde, cello
Artem Belogurov, harpsichord

​Elisabeth Hetherington's star is rising fast. For both early music and new music, she is a dream interpreter, with a radiant voice and an equally lucid imagination. This opera gala takes us back to the eighteenth-century noble salon, where visitors loved to listen to the hits from the opera theatre in domestic settings. Many popular opera arias from that era were brilliantly arranged for smaller ensemble. These are brought to life by Postscript, one of the best baroque ensembles in our country. A programme with arias by Handel, Hasse, Bononcini and other grandmasters.
