Programme Note
To close its season, Kingston Choral Society is joined by the Purcell Orchestra and some of Britain’s finest young Handel singers for the superb oratorio Solomon. The story of the great Old Testament king is told in a dazzlingly inventive stream of rousing choruses and ravishing arias, climaxing in the celebrated ‘Arrival of the Queen of Sheba’.
