Handel: Semele
He was always trouble, that Jupiter: first her great-grandmother, then her aunt, now Semele's been kidnapped. Beautiful music accompanies Ovid's tale of lusty and jealous Gods pursuing vain, foolish humans in a staged version of Handel's famous Oratorio.

About
Edinburgh Symphony Baroque was established in 1999 to provide young professional musicians with the opportunity to perform baroque music to the highest standard. ESB now has its performance home in Edinburgh's Canongate Kirk, and, by performancing a broad baroque repertoire, hopes to set better-known works in their wider musical context. The Capital's best young musicians combine to produce a vibrant and elucidating performance experience.
