Event Description
Amanda Forsythe returns to Victoria in this program of arias by Handel originally written for elisabeth Duparc ('La Francesina'). We have heard this renowned singer as a soloist in large choral works, but here is a chance to experience her artistry close up.
Forsythe will be accompanied by the Pacific Baroque Orchestra from Vancouver, directed by Alexander Weimann.
In addition to the Handel works, the program will also include the world premiere of Metis composer Pat Carrabre's "The Mother Tree" based on Suzane Simard's novel "Finding the mother tree".
"Forsythe possesses a jaw-dropping facility . . . [and] sang with a shimmering tone and a fine ear to the emotional content of the Handel arias that she presented."
