The English Concert
“light, transparent, slightly earthy sound ... fl awless technique and innate cohesiveness”—Denver Post
One of today’s hottest countertenors, David Daniels joins forces with the highly polished chamber orchestra The English Concert to perform a program dedicated to the intriguing arias and orchestral gems of Bach and Handel. David Daniels’s recording devoted to Handel arias won the Gramophone Editor’s Choice Award for his “sensuous colours … which he sings with beguiling erotic ambiguity” (Gramophone).
