The final concert of the 20th Summer Festivities of Early Music will be an homage to French Baroque opera with its masterly amalgamation of music and dance. A Night for the King narrates a story of two lovers, performed by Katherine Watson and Reinoud Van Mechelen. The protagonists wander through fantastic lands whose inhabitants –represented by solo dancers Anna Chirescu and Artur Zakirov – gloss on the fate of the vocalists.
