In Praise of Virtue
September 20 @ 7:30 PM
In Praise of Virtue features soprano Hannah DePriest and countertenor Aryeh Nussbaum Cohen in two rarely heard solo cantatas: J.S. Bach’s beautifully reflective Ich bin vergnügt (BWV 84) and G. F. Handel’s glittering Splenda l’alba in oriente (HWV 166). Excerpts from Johann Adolph Hasse’s Marc-Antonio e Cleopatra set this noble love story wth lucious meodies and spectacular virtuosity , in arias and duets for both soloists. Join us Friday evening at Zilkha Hall in the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts, 800 Bagby St. 77002. Tickets available at arslyricahouston.org or at the boxoffice 713-315-2525 option 4.
