T01615455190Sung in English. A dramatic oratorio in two acts Paranoia and envy threaten to take over society as Handel’s classic oratorio is skilfully brought up to date when a nation establishes itself as a superpower, with terrifying results... The heady celebrations of World War II victory welcome the returning hero David, but joy quickly fades as Saul’s presidential power gives way to persecution and injustice in this darkly dramatic production. Keeping true to the composer’s original telling of moral and political dilemmas, this production shows how relevant Handel’s work still is, moving away from the tumultuous and politically charged events in Ancient Israel to create a universal story relevant to all. This production is generously supported by Friends of Buxton Festival. Duration: 2hrs 30mins.Producer Buxton Festival. Company Orchestra of the Sixteen. Company Festival Chorus.
