Handel's house in Brook Street (now part of Handel and Hendrix in London) is hosting a Friday Late with a difference on Friday 2 September 2016, the first of a series of monthly events. The improvising opera company Impropera will be presenting their latest show, Muso, which will involve the audience being led round the house by one of the guides, with music being improvised on the spot inspired by Handel's life and work, and by the audience.
As the website puts it:
Night has fallen on the homes of George Frideric Handel and Jimi Hendrix. Once the doors are closed and the museum staff have gone home, something magical stirs. A harpsichord tinkles and floorboards creak as a troupe of musical improvisers sneak in at twilight to sing homage to these two great musical masters.
Tempted?
Each Friday Late with Impropera will comprise of 3 separate performances at 6pm, 7.15pm and 8.30pm. Full information from the Handel & Hendrix in London website.
