The season 2020—21 will be inaugurated by one of the most famous works in the history of music, Handel’s Messiah, and this “messianic” spirit pervades the dramaturgy of the whole concert series. The unconventional programme of the Advent concert will recreate the atmosphere of Italian Baroque Christmas and we shall celebrate the arrival of the New Year with Mozart’s Coronation Mass.
The French soprano Véronique Gens will be guest in the final concert of the first season of Baroque Opera Starts. Under the motto “Opera Revolution” Véronique Gens and Collegium 1704 will perform under the musical direction of Václav Luks compositions by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Christoph Willibald Gluck and Josef Mysliveček. The concert will take place at the 7th of May, 7.30 pm, at the Rudolfinum in Prague.
