Water and Fire in the sign of love

“There was high tension from the first to the last bar!” Wrote Klaus Linsenmeyer in Mannheimer Morgen about the performance of the Flemish ensemble B’Rock at the Mozart Festival in Würzburg. Under the direction of Dmitry Sinkovsky, who is equally successful as a violinist, conductor and countertenor, and the soprano Robin Johannsen, whose voice and singing technique could already be experienced in Halle in a very impressive way, a flood of Händel’s wonderful awaits us. Flanked by the lively “Water Music” and the crackling “Music for the Royal Fireworks”, the shepherd cantatas of the Arcadians focus on the really big feelings: the spurned love.
