Nacole Palmer, Artistic Director
Handel: Nine German Arias, Zenith Ensemble’s new album, is available for pre-order.
Exquisite and rarely performed, Nine German Arias feature some of Handel’s most beautiful writing for the voice and a solo obbligato line, sung here by soprano Nacole Palmer and played by solo baroque violinist, Marika Holmqvist. The voice and the violin shine in equal measure throughout the entire work, which explores themes of life, nature, and the divine.
