Twelfth Night Ensemble: Love & Laurels - Handel's Apollo e Dafne
Twelfth Night Ensemble: Love & Laurels - Handel's Apollo e Dafne -Sunday, October 20, 2024, 4:00 p.m. Calvary Episcopal Church Led by virtuoso violinist Rachell Ellen Wong and harpsichordist David Belkovski, the dynamic ensemble Twelfth Night returns to Pittsburgh with a program featuring British baritone Roderick Williams OBE and American soprano Nola Richardson centered around George Frideric Handel's fabulous cantata Apollo e Dafne. Based on the mythological tale of vain, amorous pursuit, Apollo e Dafne showcases the operatic flair of a very young Handel, where we see his incredible talent for drama, orchestration, and heartrendingly beautiful melody.
