Handel's Solomon

The Oxford Baroque Players join forces with Imperial College Chamber Choir and Somerville College Choir to give performances of Handel's Solomon in Oxford (March 15th 2025) and London (March 19th 2025). Handel's magnificent oratorio tells the biblical story of King Solomon's life, including the Judgement and the famous Arrival of the Queen of Sheba. Exploring themes of art, justice, and governance, Solomon raises questions about what it means to be a good leader, as well as the ideals of the society

Featuring acclaimed countertenor Francis Gush alongside student soloists from both choirs.
