(Handel’s ability to paint human emotions with music was truly remarkable and earned him the title 'The Shakespeare of Music' from King George III. This programme from Polish baroque orchestra Arte dei Suonatori focuses on Handel’s love stories and explores the fantastic variety of ways in which the composer approached the theme of love.)
