About This Event

Handel: Dixit Dominus will be performed at The Queen's Hall in Edinburgh on 20 May 2027 at 19:30. The programme explores Handel's time in Italy and the influence of composers such as Caldara and Lotti. Tickets are available from £6 to £42.

A young Handel travelled to Italy, immersing himself in a musical world shaped by composers such as Caldara and Lotti. There he absorbed a rich and expressive style marked by clarity, balance and vitality - qualities that would continue shape his own musical language. Lotti’s 'Missa Sancti Christophori', later compiled by his student Jan Dismas Zelenka, represents Italian sacred polyphony at its finest, combining expressive depth with structural refinement, especially in the breathtaking 'Crucifixus'. Meanwhile, Handel’s 'Dixit Dominus' transforms these Italian roots into a work of choral brilliance and rhythmic energy, where voices and instruments combine with striking power.
