Agrippina's Betrayal
Rebecca Hardwick (soprano) Jacob Garside (cello, viola da gamba) and the Players of the Hampstead Collective present 'Agrippina’s Betrayal.'
Rebecca Hardwick (soprano) Jacob Garside (cello, viola da gamba) and the Players of the Hampstead Collective present 'Agrippina’s Betrayal'; a programme centred round Handel’s Cantata of 1707 “Agrippina a condotta a morire”
Inspired by the tragic story of Agrippina’s fate, (which Handel later expanded in 1709 into a full scale opera), this cantata is distinctive in its devoted exploration of Agrippina’s perspective and the ensuing personal strife. In addition works by Handel’s German predecessors; Kuhnau, Schutz and Buxtehude offer insight to earlier Lutheran perspectives on these themes.
