King Arthur
28 September 2024/ Belgium / Liège
After the Tudor composers and before Handel, it was Henry Purcell who gave the English baroque its soul. With its brilliant mix of tradition and innovation, the Orpheus Britannicus also conquered the heart of Vox Luminis: one of the most celebrated Belgian formations of the moment. With King Arthur, it serves up a dramatic opera in which the swords of the Saxons clash, Roman and Germanic gods bicker and an epic soundtrack swings from climax to climax.
