| 15-Jan-2013 Teatru Manoel | Valletta International Baroque Festival: Jeune Orchestre Atlantique revives Maltese music |
 If we consider the word “festival” and its synonym “feast”, the Valletta International Baroque Festival, which started on 9 January and continues to 26 January, has proven to be a sumptuous feast, nay, a veritable banquet.
The festival has brought Baroque music to a Baroque city. It is the city’s first, hopefully not the last, festival of music of the Baroque period. The concerts have provided a kaleidoscope of music of the period featuring both local and international talent.

| 18-Jun-2011 Boughton Aluph Church | Terrific Telemann, luscious Leclair, and brilliant Bachs |
 The London Handel Players should be applauded for many things, from their characteristically warm and full sound through to their consistently thoughtful approach to how they play. Never are there any clichés of the early-music movement, adopted without question – the predictable treatment of syncopations; the uniform swelling of long notes – but rather a highly considered detailing of each and every corner of the musical palaces they inhabit.Read full review... | |
