In March 1742, a somewhat shadowy figure known as ‘Mr Charles the Hungarian’ travels to Dublin, where Handel mania is raging. Mr Charles – an entrepreneur in heart and soul – sees this as a great opportu nity and organises a concert in the Smock Alley Theatre with a pro gramme that mainly consists of Handel’s music. During the closing concert of the MA Festival, Peter Whelan and his Irish Baroque Orchestra reconstruct this evening. Performing various colourful solos – some for instruments that were new to Ireland at the time – they bring the bohemian atmosphere to Bruges.
With music by Georg Friedrich Händel (1685-1759), Georg Philipp Telemann (1681-1767), Johann Adolf Hasse (1699-?)
