I battled through rain, fog & sodden roads to reach Dorchester Abbey for this concert & it was 100% worth the effort!

The Thames Consort delivered Handel's tribute to St Cecilia & her musical talents with the most graceful applomb.

after this panel, did anyone else listen to handel's messiah and imagine enrico pucci skipping around his little prison office, operatically belting out "HALLELUJAAAH!", flinging his arms everywhere, twirling elegantly, all while shouting "EVERY VALLEY! SHALL BE! EXALTED!"

Delighted to learn that two of my loves (Handel & ancient coins; don't judge) share a frontier. Del Tesoro Britannico, the first cat. of ancient coins now at , was written by Nicola Haym, who also provided libretti for several of Handel's operas, incl. Giulio Cesare
