Les Arts Florissants and William Christie, hailed by the Guardian for their ‘superb focus, great refinement and real depth of feeling’, have played a key role in securing Wigmore Hall’s status as a world-class centre for the historically informed interpretation of Baroque music. They return with a celebratory performance of Handel’s pastoral drama Acis and Galatea, given in the two-act version he created for the London stage in 1739.
