Bertrand Cuiller and Le Caravansérail are tak­ing the baroque scene by storm these days. They have the hon­our of open­ing the 2018 edi­tion of the MAfestival with Händel’s icon­ic opera Rinaldo (1711). Lascia ch’io pianga’ is only one of the arias which made the piece immor­tal overnight. And in the duets, the bat­tle between and among the sex­es rages.
