Allyn Wu baritone
Sergio Bucheli archlute
Guillaume Haldenwang harpsichord

A musical journey taking us into the complex world of human emotions presented by the prizewinner of the 2025 Concours Corneille – the baroque vocal competition organised every two years in Normandy by Le Poème Harmonique.

Inspired by the stories of innocence, desire, betrayal and – ultimately – acceptance, the programme weaves the stories together through music of Purcell, Dowland, Charpentier and Moulinié with instrumental interludes by Couperin and Marais.

“Australian baritone Allyn Wu brought depth and authority – a name to look out for” Sussex World

Presented in association with Le Poeme Harmonique
