The London Handel Orchestra is made up of some of London’s finest professional baroque players. Its Musical Director Laurence Cummings is one of Britain’s most exciting and versatile exponents of historically informed performance, both as a conductor and a harpsichordist. They are joined by two celebrated St Albans-based choirs and internationally acclaimed vocal soloists for Handel’s much-loved English-language oratorio.
