CBSO Haydn 200: II

Wed 18 Nov 7:30pm at Town Hall

Jean-Christophe Spinosi

One of the stars of the period instrument music scene and now a leading opera conductor, Corsican-born Jean- Christophe Spinosi makes his CBSO debut with a sparkling programme featuring this year’s anniversary composers, Handel and Haydn. Two of the latter’s splendid Paris symphonies are separated by arias by Handel and Rossini, sung by one of today’s leading mezzos, acclaimed for her ‘Carmen’ at Glyndebourne.
