George Frideric Handel: Israel in Egypt
San Francisco City Chorus presents
George Frideric Handel:Israel in Egypt
Long considered to be one Handel's best oratorio operas, Israel in Egypt graphically depicts the harrowing experiences of Moses leading the Israelites to freedom and the Promised Land. Included is the famous parting of the Red Sea and the calamity of the destruction of the pursuing Egyptian Army. The 7 plagues, including the frogs, flies and locusts, show Handel's composition talents at their best. Israel in Egypt is initially challenging and ultimately immensely rewarding with its many double-choruses and bold duets and arias. The San Francisco City Chorus and SF Academy Orchestra is where the musical action is for this fall--Join us for a thrilling musical journey!
