Handel's Christmas jewels Vox Luminis

4 pieces

Whoever says Georg Friedrich Händel during the Christmas period, says Messiah . However, this German composer wrote more Christmas jewels in his younger years. The inimitable Vox Luminis brings 4 magnificent pieces by a youthful Händel full of Italian flair. An atmospheric and cheerful Christmas concert with the French soprano Perrine Devillers as radiant soloist in Laudate Pueri . The Dixit Dominus already made a great impression in Händel's time. Vox Luminis brings it 'simply excellent: spicy, elusive and beautifully controlled' according to Gramophone.

For over 20 years, the Belgian ensemble Vox Luminis has been surprising with special productions. Although the vocal repertoire from the 17th and early 18th century is paramount, the company now also has an exceptionally good orchestra. 'The name Vox Luminis alone is enough to arouse a wave of expectation', wrote Gramophone about the ensemble, which has been showered with many awards.
