Premiered in 2017, Jeannette Sorrell’s new adaption of Handel’s neglected oratorio has won rave reviews. In addition to being a colorful showpiece for the virtuoso players and chorus of Apollo’s Fire, the work is a gripping emotional journey—from plagues and pyramids to the crossing of the Red Sea. The Israelites’ daring escape from Egypt comes to life with reverence and triumph through Handel’s sumptuous music.
