SUMMARY:Newton Baroque Presents London Rivals: Cantatas and Sonatas by Nico
 la Porpora and George Frederick Handel
DESCRIPTION:In 1733 Frederick\, Prince of Wales brought in the composer Nic
 ola Porpora and founded the Opera of the Nobility to rival his father Geor
 ge II’s opera company\, which was directed by George Frederick Handel. T
 he two opera companies competed for singers\, and for an audience\, and by
  1737 both opera companies were bankrupt. This concert features cantatas\,
  violin sonatas\, and keyboard fugues by the rival music directors Nicola 
 Porpora and George Frederick Handel. While Handel is certainly the best kn
 own of the two composers today\, you might just find Porpora a more capabl
 e rival to Handel than you would have guessed. We’ll help you compare th
 em! Jesse Irons will play violin sonatas by both composers\, Teresa Wakim 
 will sing cantatas by each of them\, and Andrus Madsen will play keyboard 
 fugues by the rivals—all joined by continuo cellist Sarah Freiberg Ellis
 on.\n&nbsp\;\n&nbsp\;
