LEEDS BAROQUE CHOIR & ORCHESTRA

Audience Review: A wonderful rendition of this too rarely performed work (Charpentier David et Jonathas). The orchestra were excellent and the chorus accomplished as ever, with many of their members taking solo parts. The main characters were superb, especially Stuart O'Hara in the role of Saul"
