Harry Bicket Celebrates 10 Years with the English Concert in a Star Harry Bicket celebrates 10 years with The English Concert in a star-studded 2017/18 season including Lucy Crowe, Kristian Bezuidenhout, Iestyn Davies and Andreas Scholl “Next March comes Rinaldo. Book now” The Independent, 5* review of Ariodante, 2017 Harry Bicket celebrates 10 years as Artistic Director of The English Concert with a star-studded 2017/18 season featuring Iestyn Davies, Kristian Bezuidenhout, Lucy Crowe, and Andreas Scholl. The English Concert continue their annual Handel opera-in-concert series this year with Rinaldo. Starring Iestyn Davies, Rinaldo travels to Sevilla, Madrid, London and New York. Following the success of Tom Morris’ Messiah in Bristol, the co-production is revived at Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall (with the Erebus Ensemble) in spring 2018. Kristian Bezuidenhout has been announced as The English Concert’s new Principal Guest Director, exploring not only classical keyboard works, but chamber music as well. “The prospect of working in closer collaboration with The English Concert as their Principal Guest Director fills me with great excitement: what an enormous honour it will be to explore this extraordinary repertoire together” Kristian Bezuidenhout Harry Bicket joined The English Concert as their Artistic Director in 2007, following founder Trevor Pinnock and his successor Andrew Manze. In that time the orchestra has gone from strength to strength, harnessing Bicket’s extensive operatic experience and forging a long-term association with New York’s Carnegie Hall to present an annual Handel opera-in-concert. Previous years have seen performances of Alcina, Theodora, Radamisto, Orlando and Hercules with top soloists Joyce DiDonato, Sarah Connolly and Iestyn Davies. After their acclaimed performances of Ariodante last season, the orchestra takes their latest offering, Rinaldo, to Sevilla, Madrid, London, and of course New York in March 2018. Iestyn Davies appears in the title role, joined by Jane Archibald, Sasha Cooke, Joélle Harvey, Jakub Jozef Orlinski and Luca Pisaroni. “The young composer uses everything in his compositional arsenal to charm and delight; it is no coincidence this was his big arrival piece in London in 1711. The highlight for me is the chance to sing Cara sposa, an aria that even Handel himself claimed was the greatest he ever wrote. I can’t wait to work on this piece again with Harry Bicket and The English Concert” Iestyn Davies Such operatic credentials are brought to the revival of Tom Morris’ staging of Handel’s Messiah (originally performed at Bristol Old Vic last season) which travels to Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall on 29 March 2018. “I felt an active part of the events unfolding in front, above and around me. Perhaps the cheers and whoops at the end suggested others felt that way too”. The Times Watch Harry Bicket on the relationship between Mr Handel and The English Concert in this video: New Principal Guest Director Kristian Bezuidenhout opens The English Concert’s 2017/18 season at the Wigmore Hall on 14 September with a programme of Haydn, Mozart and CPE Bach (also at the Rye Arts Festival on 16 September), and returns later in the season to perform Handel, Telemann, and Bach’s D minor harpsichord concerto at Kings Place. “Steered along by Bezuidenhout’s darting looks and the firm knowledge that The English Concert players would never knock themselves off course” The Times Lucy Crowe joins The English Concert for Bach’s monumental B Minor Mass for the Bath Bach Festival in February 2018 alongside Anna Harvey, Nick Pritchard and Ashley Riches. Crowe’s début recording Il Caro Sassone, a disc of Handel arias made with the ensemble and Harry Bicket in 2011, was greeted with critical acclaim: “Crowe’s delectable singing is complemented by fresh rhythmically buoyant and, where needed, virtuoso playing from The English Concert” (Gramophone). An all-Mozart programme brings the orchestra and Crowe together once again at Milton Court in London, and The Brewhouse in Taunton, during October 2017. Here, The English Concert’s leader Nadja Zwiener is also in action in Mozart’s final violin concerto. Appointed by Harry Bicket, Zwiener similarly celebrates her 10th anniversary with the orchestra, featuring as a soloist throughout the year alongside her fellow principal musicians and on a forthcoming disc due for release next year. In addition to their busy touring schedule, The English Concert appear at the Wigmore Hall a further three times this season: firstly, on 29 November with collaborators Robert Quinney and The Choir of New College Oxford in music by Blow, Purcell and Handel, and secondly in a more reflective programme dedicated to Buxtehude on 8 February with soprano Dorothee Mields and gambist Jonathan Manson. Nadja Zwiener appears as soloist once more on 19 April as the orchestra take in the treasures of Versailles (Rameau), Venice (Tartini), Zelenka (Dresden), and London (Arne) on their ‘European Grand Tour’. The London season also sees the orchestra make their Kings Place début on 6 December in an intimate sonata-filled programme of Corelli, Matteis, Biber and Purcell with Nadja Zwiener, Tuomo Suni, Emilia Benjamin and Tom Foster. A tour to South Korea with acclaimed German countertenor Andreas Scholl draws 2017/18 to a close. After their celebration of Shakespeare in East Asia last season with Tim Mead and Mary Bevan, The English Concert appear in Seoul, Daejeon and Taiwan following a UK performance at Saffron Hall next May with music by some of England’s greatest cultural exports, Purcell, Avison and Handel.

  • The English Concert – Biography
    The English Concert – Biography The English Concert is one of Europe’s leading chamber orchestras specialising in historically informed performance. Created by Trevor Pinnock in 1973, the orchestra appointed Harry Bicket as its Artistic Director in 2007. Bicket is renowned for his work with singers and vocal collaborators, including in recent seasons Lucy Crowe, Elizabeth Watts, Sarah Connolly, Joyce DiDonato, Alice Coote and Iestyn Davies. The English Concert has a wide touring brief and the 2014-15 season will see them appear both across the UK and abroad. Recent highlights include European and US tours with Alice Coote, Joyce DiDonato, David Daniels and Andreas Scholl as well as the orchestra’s first tour to mainland China. Harry Bicket directed The English Concert and Choir in Bach’s Mass in B Minor at the 2012 Leipzig Bachfest and later that year at the BBC proms, a performance that was televised for BBC4. Following the success of Handel’s Radamisto in New York 2013, Carnegie Hall has commissioned one Handel opera each season from The English Concert. Theodora followed in early 2014, which toured West Coast of the USA as well as the Théâtre des Champs Elysées Paris and the Barbican London followed by a critically acclaimed tour of Alcina in October 2014. Future seasons will see performances of Handel’s Hercules and Orlando. The English Concert’s discography includes more than 100 recordings with Trevor Pinnock for Deutsche Grammophon Archiv, and a series of critically acclaimed CDs for Harmonia Mundi with violinist Andrew Manze. Recordings with Harry Bicket have been widely praised, including Lucy Crowe’s debut solo recital, Il caro Sassone.
