In Spring 2019, the Monteverdi Choir and English Baroque Soloists, led by John Eliot Gardiner, presented a tour of Handelâs dramatic oratorio, Semele. In a concert-staging directed by Thomas Guthrie, a glamorous team of young soloists joined the Monteverdi ensembles to bring the story of Semele to life.
This performance was filmed in London's Alexandra Palace Theatre on 2 May 2019.

your voice is so wooooooooow!!!! I love it
A perfect example of ABdacapo aria form of Handel's day. So elegant!
Superb. This is Handel. My dear. A real Handel. My compliments
Amazing. I love this tenor's voice!
WDR3 radio broadcasted this new production last Sunday 8.05 p.m. As a Handelanian I was very delighted to listen to this marvellous music!
Wonderful, gave me goosebumps.
Wie schön!!!
So very emotional,
đ Today 18Sept'23 and loving this version, that has some rather strange new notes.

Good sung. Tempo improvable.
Geweldig!!

What was that made up bit in the B section about?
I seem to remember Gardiner has to "bring something" to everything he does...not unknown among conductors haha... ;-)
It helps a lot to have a mic.
What's with his head microphone. Shouldn't these great musicians achieve a good balance?
Id have a hard time not laughing at that girl.
isn't the point 'hearing the music" forget watching girls ?
Me parece que el trabajo vocal del tenor es mĂĄs apropiado para el Teatro Musical. Lo digo con respeto.
I agree. But alas this production is far more operatic than what an original Handel would have been, so I guess these things are constantly changing.
What do you not like in his voice or singing?
The only thing I donât like
Is the way he is singing the word âtoâ
Yeah thatâs fair
Do you mean into?
