Embark on a musical journey through the timeless elegance of Purcell and Handel, two of Baroque music’s greatest masters.

The evening opens with Purcell’s Chaconne in G minor, an enchanting dance that sets a graceful tone, followed by the grandeur of Handel’s See, from his post Euphrates flies from Belshazzar. Next, the haunting beauty of Purcell’s Chaconne from King Arthur unfolds before the stately magnificence of Handel’s Nisi Dominus.

The first half concludes with Purcell’s radiant anthem My heart is inditing, paving the way for the uplifting O sing unto the Lord in the second half, a brilliant prelude to the evening’s crown jewel: Handel’s powerful and awe-inspiring Dixit Dominus. This masterful piece brings the concert to a triumphant close, a celebration of Baroque splendour and the enduring power of music.

The Sixteen’s choir and period-instrument orchestra stand today among the world’s greatest ensembles, peerless interpreters of Renaissance, Baroque and modern choral music, acclaimed worldwide for performances delivered with precision, power and passion.

‘Christophers is probably the best-known choral director in the world. For [45] years, his professional vocal ensemble, The Sixteen, has set the gold standard, especially in the sacred-music repertoire.’ (The Times)
