Bloody water, frogs, hailstones and impenetrable darkness: Thomas Hengelbrock sees »Israel in Egypt« as Handel’s most avant-garde work. With its vivid style and gripping choral scenes, the oratorio seems predestined for performance by conductor Hengelbrock and his Balthasar Neumann ensembles, who are known for their uncompromising interpretation of every detail of music and text alike. They are performing this mighty work as part of the Hamburg International Digital Music Festival – together with outstanding vocal soloists from the choir. A detective story on the concert platform!
